PEACE, LOVE, JOY
Paul’s words from today’s Liturgy of the Hours seem well connected to yesterday’s Angelus message from Pope Francis. Thanks to the Vatican Media story for his words.
Alone on our own way is never enough. The Pope said it leads to an atmosphere that’s heavy. “Life becomes difficult, and encounters become more occasions of unease, sadness and discouragement than of joy.”
But the Holy Father suggests it is different working together. “We manage to get along and agree, sharing what we have, everyone giving up something and supporting each other.”
And he adds that if we live this way, an environment of love is created, ”where it is easier to open up to faith and the newnesss of the Gospel, and from which one emerges better, more serene.”
I add a question to the Pope’s words: which path will we take?
Peace,
Deacon Tom
