Let us pray for peace: peace in the world and in each of our hearts.

Grace is not part of consciousness; it is the amount of light in our souls, not knowledge nor reason.

Nurturing and cherishing creation is a command God gives not only at the beginning of history, but to each of us. It is part of his plan; it means causing the world to grow responsibly, transforming it so that it may be a garden, a habitable place for everyone.

How beautiful it is to see that young people are 'street preachers,' joyfully bringing Jesus to every street, every town square and every corner of the earth!

Joy cannot be held at heel: it must be let go. Joy is a pilgrim virtue. It is a gift that walks, walks on the path of life, that walks with Jesus: preaching, proclaiming Jesus, proclaiming joy, lengthens and widens that path.

Humility saves man: pride makes him lose his way.

How many innocent people and children suffer in the world! Lord, grant us your peace!
