Do Not Be Afraid To Go Forth

We Cannot Become Starched Christians, Too Polite, Who Speak Of Theology Calmly Over Tea. We Have To Become Courageous Christians And Seek Out Those (who Need Help Most).

There Are Saints In The Roman Curia, Among The Cardinals, Priests, Religious, Sisters And Laity. They Work Hard, And Also Do Things That Are Often Hidden. I Know Some Who Concern Themselves With Feeding The Poor Or Who Give Up Their Free Time To Work In A Parish. As Always, The Ones Who Aren't Saints Make The Most Noise ... A Single Tree Falling Makes A Sound, But A Whole Forest Growing Doesn't.

We Have To Find A New Balance; Otherwise Even The Moral Edifice Of The Church Is Likely To Fall Like A House Of Cards, Losing The Freshness And Fragrance Of The Gospel.

It Means Caring For One Another In Our Families: Husbands And Wives First Protect One Another, And Then, As Parents, They Care For Their Children, And Children Themselves, In Time, Protect Their Parents.

Fraternal Love Is The Nearest Testimony That We Can Give That Jesus Is Alive Among Us.
