It Is Legitimate And Necessary To Ask

Humankind, Which Discovers Its Capacity To Transform And In A Certain Sense Create The World Through Its Own Work, Forgets That This Is Always Based On God's Prior And Original Gift Of Things That Are. People Think That They Can Make Arbitrary Use Of The Earth, Subjecting It Without Restraint To Their Wills, As Though The Earth Did Not Have Its Own Requisites And A Prior God-given Purpose, Which Human Beings Can Indeed Develop But Must Not Betray.

True Living Is Not Found In One's Self Or In Things. It Is Found In Someone Else, In The One Who Created Everything That Is Good, True, And Beautiful In The World. True Living Is Found In God And You Discover God In The Person Of Jesus Christ.

In The Fulfillment Of Your Duties, Let Your Intentions Be So Pure That You Reject From Your Actions Any Other Motive Than The Glory Of God And The Salvation Of Souls.

I Encourage Christians Regularly To Visit Christ Present In The Blessed Sacrament, For We Are All Called To Abide In The Presence Of God.

To Humanity, Which Sometimes Seems To Be Lost And Dominated By The Power Of Evil, Selfishness And Fear, The Risen Lord Gives The Gift Of His Love Which Forgives, Reconciles And Reopens The Soul To Hope.
