See everything, overlook a great deal, correct a little.
Pope John XXIIITags: humility
Prayer is the raising of the mind to God.
We must always remember this.
The actual words matter less.
The mark of Cain is stamped upon our foreheads. Across the centuries, our brother Abel was lain in blood which we drew, and shed tears we caused by forgetting Thy love. Forgive us, Lord, for the curse we falsely attributed to their name as Jews. Forgive us for crucifying Thee a second time in their flesh. For we knew not what we did.
Pope John XXIIIMankind is a great, an immense family... This is proved by what we feel in our hearts at Christmas.
Pope John XXIIITags: christmas
... just as food is necessary to the life of the body, so good reading is necessary to the life of the soul.
Pope John XXIIITags: books
See everything; overlook a great deal; correct a little.
Pope John XXIIIConsult not your fears but your hopes and your dreams. Think not about your frustrations, but about your unfulfilled potential.
Concern yourself not with what you tried and failed in, but with what it is still possible for you to do.
I have looked into your eyes with my eyes. I have put my heart near your heart.
Pope John XXIIIIf God created shadows it was to better emphasise the light.
Pope John XXIIIWe deem it opportune to remind our children of their duty to take an active part in public life and to contribute toward the attainment of the common good of the entire human family as well as to that of their own political community. They should endeavor, therefore, in the light of their Christian faith and led by love, to insure that the various institutions—whether economic, social, cultural or political in purpose—should be such as not to create obstacles, but rather to facilitate or render less arduous man’s perfecting of himself in both the natural order and the supernatural.... Every believer in this world of ours must be a spark of light, a center of love, a vivifying leaven amidst his fellow men. And he will be this all the more perfectly, the more closely he lives in communion with God in the intimacy of his own soul
