Image
The Gospel teaches us what Jesus' kingdom requires of us... Reminds us that closeness and tenderness are the rules of life.
Pope Francis
Image
The proclamation of Jesus is not a veneer: the proclamation of Jesus goes straight to the bones, heart, goes deep within and change us. And the spirit of the world does not tolerate it, will not tolerate it, and therefore, there is persecution.
Pope Francis
Image
That which gives us true freedom and true happiness is the compassionate love of Christ.
Pope Francis
Image
The growth of equality… calls for decisions, mechanisms and processes directed to a better distribution of wealth, the creation of sources of employment and an integral promotion of the poor, which goes beyond a simple welfare mentality.
Pope Francis
Image
Do not be afraid to cast yourselves into the arms of God whatever he asks of you, he will repay a hundredfold.
Pope Francis
Image
The love of God is not something vague or generic the love of God has a name and a face: Jesus Christ.
Pope Francis
Image
The Corrupt should be tied to a rock & thrown into the sea
Pope Francis
Image
All revealed truths derive from the same divine source and are to be believed with the same faith, yet some of them are more important for giving direct expression to the heart of the Gospel. In this basic core, what shines forth is the beauty of the saving love of God made manifest in Jesus Christ who died and rose from the dead.
Pope Francis
Image
In a very real way, the poor are our teachers. They show us that people’s value is not measured by their possessions or how much money they have in the bank. A poor person, a person lacking material possessions, always maintains his or her dignity. The poor can teach us much about humility and trust in God.
Pope Francis
Image
We need to avoid the spiritual sickness of a church that is wrapped up in its own world: when a church becomes like this, it grows sick.
Pope Francis
Image
God’s love is free. He asks for nothing in return all he wants is for his love to be accepted.
Pope Francis
Image
Peace is always possible but we have to seek it. Let us pray for peace.
Pope Francis
Image
Since God created the world, He also created reality.
Pope Francis
Image
For her part, the Church always works for the integral development of every person. In this sense, she reiterates that the common good should not be simply an extra, simply a conceptual scheme of inferior quality tacked onto political programmes. The Church encourages those in power to be truly at the service of the common good of their peoples.
Pope Francis
Image
A Christian is never bored or sad. Rather, the one who loves Christ is full of joy and radiates joy.
Pope Francis
Image
I had an experience of knowing the Polish people when I was a child, and where my father worked many Poles came to work after the war. They were good people, and this has stayed in my heart.
Pope Francis
Image
I say only that this man [Donald Trump] is not Christian if he has said things like that [about wall]. We must see if he said things in that way and in this I give the benefit of the doubt.
Pope Francis
Image
Christians must respond to evil with good, taking the cross upon themselves as Jesus did
Pope Francis
Image
Resolve not to be overcome by evil, but to combat evil with good.
Pope Francis
Image
In God’s great plan, every detail is important, even yours, even my humble little witness, even the hidden witness of those who live their faith with simplicity in everyday family relationships, work relationships, friendships. There are the saints of every day, the “hidden” saints, a sort of “middle class of holiness” to which we can all belong.
Pope Francis
