Holy Father Pope Francis , while addressing the faithful gathered in St. Peter’s Square, Rome, conveyed the significance of having faith in the Lord Almighty in times of troubles and struggles in life. His Holiness reminded the gatherings about overcoming all the difficult circumstances in one’s life by having sheltered himself under the wings of Jesus Christ.
As reported by the Catholic News Agency, His Holiness reflected on the day’s Gospel reading from the book of Matthew : “Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest” and he stressed that, “Jesus knows how hard life can be, But at those moments His invitation is “Come.” It can be easy to be tempted to turn in on ourselves when things are going badly but Jesus wants to pull us out of his despairing quicksand through a loving relationship.”
Holy Father concluded by exhorting that “Jesus does not take the Cross away from us, rather He carries it with us.” , as reported by Catholic News Agency.
