More quotes by Pope John Paul II
To predispose our mind to welcome the Lord who, as we say in the Creed, one day will come to judge the living and the dead, we must learn to recognize him as present in the events of daily life. Therefore, Advent is, so to speak, an intense training that directs us decisively toward him who already came, who will come, and who comes continuously.
Pope John Paul II
To recite the Rosary is nothing other than to contemplate the face of Christ with Mary.
Pope John Paul II
Have no fear of moving into the unknown.
Pope John Paul II
This is why moral uneasiness is destined to become even more acute. It is obvious that a fundamental defect, or rather a series of defects, indeed a defective machinery is at the root of contemporary economics and materialistic civilization, which does not allow the human family to break free from such radically unjust situations.
Pope John Paul II
Make your lives intensely Eucharistic.
Pope John Paul II
In order to see Jesus, we first need to let him look at us!
Pope John Paul II
How beautiful is the family that recites the Rosary every evening.
Pope John Paul II
Our communal worship at Mass must go together with our personal worship of Jesus in Eucharistic adoration in order that our love may be complete
Pope John Paul II
The mystery of the Holy Night, which historically happened two thousand years ago, must be lived as a spiritual event in the 'today' of the Liturgy, the Pope clarified. The Word who found a dwelling in Mary's womb comes to knock on the heart of every person with singular intensity this Christmas.
Pope John Paul II
This is no time to be ashamed of the Gospel. It is the time to preach it from the rooftops. Do not be afraid to break out of comfortable and routine modes of living in order to take up the challenge of making Christ known in the modern metropolis.
Pope John Paul II
See everything. Ignore a lot. Improve a little.
Pope John Paul II
The measure of your success will be the measure of your generosity.
Pope John Paul II
The international community should support a system of laws to regularize international relations and maintain the peace in the same manner that law governs national order.
Pope John Paul II
The world looks to the priest, because it looks to Jesus! No one can see Christ but everyone sees the priest, and through him they wish to catch a glimpse of the Lord! Immense is the grandeur of the Lord! Immense is the grandeur and dignity of the priest!
Pope John Paul II
Your faith will help you realize that it is Jesus Himself Who is present in the Blessed Sacrament, waiting for you and calling you to spend one special specific hour with Him each week.
Pope John Paul II
There are many examples of this mistaken idea of freedom, such as the elimination of human life by legalized or generally accepted abortion.
Pope John Paul II
Work bears a particular mark of man and of humanity, the mark of a person operating within a community of persons
Pope John Paul II
The true Christian can nurture a trustful optimism, because he is certain of not walking alone. In sending us Jesus, the eternal Son made man, God has drawn near to each of us. In Christ he has become our travelling companion.
Pope John Paul II
It would appear that, on the level of individual nations and of international relations, the free market is the most efficient instrument for utilizing resources and effectively responding to needs.
Pope John Paul II
The Church has a special duty to safeguard and strengthen the sacredness of the Eucharist. In our pluralistic and often deliberately secularized society, the living faith of the Christian community - a faith always aware of its rights vis-a-vis those who do not share the faith - ensures respect for this sacredness
Pope John Paul II
