True love does not pay attention to the evil it suffers. It rejoices in doing good.
Pope Francis
Image
In a world like this, media can help us to feel closer to one another, creating a sense of unity of the human family which can in turn inspire solidarity and serious efforts to ensure a more dignified life for all.
Pope Francis
Image
To live as true children of God means to love our neighbour and to be close to those who are lonely and in difficulty
Pope Francis
Image
Many people who are forced into emigration suffer and often die tragically many of their rights are violated, they are obliged to separate from their families and, unfortunately, continue to be subjected to racist attitudes and xenophobia.
Pope Francis
Image
Let us pray for the many Christians in the world who still suffer persecution and violence. May God grant them the courage of fidelity.
Pope Francis
Image
What God cares about most is that we are His friends.
Pope Francis
Image
The Sacraments are Jesus Christ’s presence in us. So it is important for us to go to Confession and receive Holy Communion.
Pope Francis
Image
A poverty learned with the humble, the poor, the sick and all those who are on the existential outskirts of life. A theoretical poverty is no use to us. Poverty is learned by touching the flesh of the poor Christ, in the humble, in the poor, in the sick and in children.
Pope Francis
Image
The joy of the Gospel is for all people: no one can be excluded.
Pope Francis
Image
How good it is for us when the Lord unsettles our lukewarm and superficial lives.
Pope Francis
Image
Jesus is the one who brings God to us and us to God.
Pope Francis
Image
Gossip can also kill, because it kills the reputation of the person! It is so terrible to gossip! At first it may seem like a nice thing, even amusing, like enjoying a candy. But in the end, it fills the heart with bitterness, and even poisons us.
Pope Francis
Image
The political struggle against marriage equality is war
Pope Francis
Image
Perhaps I can say that I am a bit astute, that I can adapt to circumstances, but it is also true that I am a bit naive. Yes, but the best summary, the one that comes more from the inside and I feel most true is this: I am a sinner whom the Lord has looked upon.
Pope Francis
Image
Jesus on the Cross feels the whole weight of the evil, and with the force of God's love he conquers it, he defeats it with his resurrection.
Pope Francis
Image
The Church, in her wisdom, maintains the distinction between engaged and married couples -- they are not the same, today's culture and society have become rather indifferent to the delicate and serious nature of this passage.
Pope Francis
Image
Abortion is not a theological problem, it is a human problem, it is a medical problem. You kill one person to save another, in the best case scenario. Or to live comfortably, no? It's against the Hippocratic oaths doctors must take.
Pope Francis
Image
The Golden Rule reminds us of our responsibility to protect and defend human life at every stage of its development. This conviction has led me, from the beginning of my ministry, to advocate at different levels for the global abolition of the death penalty.
Pope Francis
Image
Don't confuse the evil of avoiding pregnancy by itself, with abortion. Abortion is not a theological problem, it is a human problem, it is a medical problem. You kill one person to save another, in the best case scenario.
Pope Francis
Image
Consumerism has led us to become used to an excess and daily waste of food, to which, at times, we are no longer able to give a just value, which goes well beyond mere economic parameters. We should all remember, however, that throwing food away is like stealing from the tables of the the poor, the hungry!
