[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

The Family of Jesus, Mary and Joseph is holy. And yet we have seen that even Jesus’ parents did not always understand Him. Let us not be surprised if at times it happens that we do not understand each other. When it happens, let us ask ourselves: have we listened to each other?

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Without joy, faith becomes a rigorous and oppressive exercise, and runs the risk of ailing with sadness. There is no holiness without joy!

We need to listen to the message of the God who comes to us; we need to discern the signs of his presence and to accept his Word by walking in his footsteps. Listen, discern, journey: these three verbs can describe our faith journey. https://t.co/Iumc76j8fg

Nothing annoys me more than when someone expects you to be okay with something that they wouldn’t be okay with if you did it. 🤨🤷‍♀️

…anndddd I’m done. #definitelyamonday

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Saints are witnesses whom we venerate and who in thousands of different ways bring us to Jesus Christ, the only Lord and Mediator between God and humanity. They remind us that holiness can blossom even in our lives, however weak and marked by sin. #SaintMatthew

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Let us ask the Lord to help us be consistent and to courageously combat anything that can lead us away from the truth and from the faith we profess. Only thus can we truly build unity and fraternity. #GeneralAudience

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Mary’s secret is humility. It is her humility that attracted God’s gaze to her. Today, looking at Mary #assumed into heaven, we can say that humility is the way that leads to Heaven. #Angelus

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

To experience #Lent in hope means receiving the hope of Christ, who gave his life on the cross and was raised by God on the third day, and always being prepared to make a defence to anyone who calls us to account for our hope (1 Pt 3,15).

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

The culture of life is the heritage that Christians want to share with everyone. Every human life, unique and unrepeatable, is priceless. This must be courageously proclaimed ever anew through word and action.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

We too can change evil into good each day. Loving actions change history: even the ones that are small, hidden, everyday. For God guides history through the humble courage of those who pray, love and forgive.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

I encourage you to dedicate time to prayer, meditating in the light of the Word of God, so that the Holy Spirit who inhabits it might illuminate the path to follow and transform our hearts, as we await the birth of Our Lord Jesus. #Advent

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Life is grounded in three fundamental and closely connected relationships: the Relationship with God, with our neighbour and with the earth. #SeasonOfCreation

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

We are called to be instruments of God our Father, so that our planet might be what He dreamed of when he created it and correspond with his plan for peace, beauty and fullness. #SeasonOfCreation
