Jesus understands our weaknesses and sins; and he forgives us if we allow ourselves to be forgiven.
Pope FrancisHuman beings are themselves considered consumer goods to be used and then discarded. We have created a 'disposable' culture which is now spreading. It is no longer simply about exploitation and oppression, but something new.
Pope FrancisYou may be poor yourselves in material ways, but you have an abundance of gifts to offer when you offer Christ and the community of his Church.
Pope FrancisWhat has the Cross left in each of us? You see, it gives us a treasure that no one else can give: the certainty of the faithful love which God has for us. A love so great that it enters into our sin and forgives it, enters into our suffering and gives us the strength to bear it. It is a love which enters into death to conquer it and save us.
Pope Francis
