If in so many parts of the world there are children who have nothing to eat, that's not news, it seems normal. It cannot be this way!
Pope FrancisGrace is not part of consciousness; it is the amount of light in our souls, not knowledge nor reason.
Pope FrancisI had the habit of not accepting prizes or honors, but always, not out of humility, but because I don't like them.
Pope FrancisLet us not close our hearts, let us not lose confidence, let us never give up: there are no situations which God cannot change, there is no sin which he cannot forgive if only we open ourselves to him.
Pope FrancisA God who draws near out of love, the Holy Father continued, walks with His people, and this walk comes to an unimaginable point. We could never have imagined that the same Lord would become one of us and walk with us, be present with us, present in His Church, present in the Eucharist, present in His Word, present in the poor, He is present, walking with us. And this is closeness: the shepherd close to his flock, close to his sheep, whom he knows, one by one.
Pope Francis
