If God can take the torture and murder of His Son and turn it into the most beautiful thing in the world, then we always have hope.
Always.

This thread by @rightscholar is thoughtful, well reasoned and worth engaging over. Thank you!
The Church can only provide guidance regarding what the Church knows, and its knowledge and understanding of the present is limited. Further, it is hampered by its own doctrine and claims of infallibility. Any positive engagement with the present will usually be in terms vague...

If people know we are Christian and do not see that we are more sacrificial, more kind, more loving, than they are right to question whether we are Christian.
Our love for God simply must compel us to treat every human as a treasure; If it does not, then it is not love.

Have always appreciated @rightscholar unlike a lot of what we have read the last days he always offers concrete and down to earth commentary infused with practical human honesty which folks can build on as opposed to just inciting further frustration. The man is a bridge builder
I get frustrated with Pope Francis sometimes (like yesterday), but I find it helps to remember that he is NOT the typical Supreme Pontiff. He's humble, and on many key issues I think he's just as uncertain as any of us are. He knows his limits, and fears making mistakes.

I have decided to declare Friday, 27 October, a day of fasting, penance and prayer for #peace. I invite the various Christian confessions, members of other religious, and all who hold the cause of peace in the world at heart to participate.
This strikes the memories of my heart
Come on back to the front porch, whatever you've done it doesn't matter, 'cos darlin' were all a little splintered and battered...

Francis: “Let us remember that attachment to our history and to the significant places of our tradition must not prevent the novelty of the Spirit from tracing paths…We need open eyes and an attentive heart to grasp the signs of the times and look ahead!” vaticannews.va/en/pope/news/…
A great place to begin from today👇🏽
LENT PRAYER – ST EPHRAIM OF SYRIA
Lord God and Master of my life, take from me the spirit of laziness, despair, lust of power, and cheap talk. Replace it with your Spirit of faithfulness, humility, patience, and love. Lord, help me to see my sin, and not to judge my brother.

I believe Jesus’ ministry reveals that true conversion stems from relationship, not words. For that reason, when I am preaching, teaching, or writing, I have to try to give myself away; to let others encounter me in some real way. #DailyMeditations ow.ly/rCa050M5JWZ

26th Sunday in OT Lk 16:19-31 the story of the rich man and #Lazarus, Jesus teaches us that how we live our life, here in this world, has consequences for where and how we will live our life in the next! #Actions always have #Consequences - there is no escaping them! #awaken
Humbling to read and reflect on this today
We can be rich in money, good looks, education, social status, rhetorical power, leadership skills, business acumen ... and if we come to believe that this wealth is not a gift of God for the sake of others but our possession that puts us above others: the Kingdom will elude us.

Dear brothers & sisters of the #IndigenousPeoples, I now return home bearing in my heart the treasure of all those who have left a mark on me, your faces, smiles and words, stories & places will always remain with me. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. #ApostolicJourney

Key to the Francis project has been to invite the Church out of the temptation of desolation (lamenting, condemning) faced with secularisation, & instead to ask: where is God in this? How must we change? He did this at Aparecida, in Evangelii Gaudium, and tonight #PopeInCanada
