What God cares about most is that we are His friends.

If globalization seeks to bring all of us together, but to do so respecting each person, each individual person's peculiarity, that globalization is good and makes us good and grow and leads to peace.
Pope Francis
Image
My people are poor and I am one of them.
Pope Francis
Image
It’s like in soccer: you have to deal with the penalties where they fall you can’t choose where they’re going to land. Life is like that, and you have to deal with it even if you don’t like it.
Pope Francis
Image
Concealing or denying evil is like allowing a wound to keep bleeding without bandaging it.
Pope Francis

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.
Pope Francis

Religious life ought to promote growth in the Church by way of attraction. The Church must be attractive. Wake up the world! Be witnesses of a different way of doing things, of acting, of living! It is possible to live differently in this world.
Pope Francis
Image
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!
Pope Francis
Image
Each of us has a vision of good and of evil. We have to encourage people to move towards what they think is good... Everyone has his own idea of good and evil and must choose to follow the good and fight evil as he conceives them. That would be enough to make the world a better place.
Pope Francis
Image
Almost without being aware of it, we end up being incapable of feeling compassion at the outcry of the poor, weeping for other people's pain, and feeling a need to help them, as though all this were someone else's responsibility and not our own.
Pope Francis
Image
Dear young people, Jesus gives us life, life in abundance. If we are close to him we will have joy in our hearts and a smile on our face.
Pope Francis
Image
Lord Jesus, make us capable of loving as you love.
Pope Francis
Image
Not to share one’s goods with the poor is to rob them and to deprive them of life. It is not our goods that we possess, but theirs.
Pope Francis
Image
Dearest brothers and sisters who are so persecuted, I know how much you suffer, I know that you are stripped of everything. I am with you in the faith of the one who has conquered evil!
Pope Francis
Image
But always think this: do not be afraid of failure. Do not be afraid of falling. In the art of walking, what is important is not avoiding the fall but not remaining fallen.
Pope Francis
Image
In this Year of Faith, we pray to the Lord that the Church may always be a true family that brings God’s love to everyone.
