Are our lives truly filled with the presence of God? How many things take the place of God in my life each day?
Pope FrancisLet us go back to the Lord. The Lord never tires of forgiving: never! It is we who tire of asking his forgiveness. Let us ask for the grace not to tire of asking forgiveness, because he never tires of forgiving.
Pope FrancisDonโt be afraid to ask God for forgiveness. He never tires of forgiving us. God is pure mercy.
Pope FrancisIt's best to not confuse optimism with hope. Optimism is a psychological attitude toward life. Hope goes further. It is an anchor that one hurls toward the future, it's what lets you pull on the line and reach what you're aiming for and head in the right direction. Hope is also theological: God is there, too.
