Pope Leo

Dear brothers and sisters, in our continuing catechesis on Jesus our hope, today we consider human fraternity and Jesus’ commandment to love one another.  Our lives are built upon many relationships, which we need in order to thrive.  When our daily interactions with others are genuine rather than mere polite formalities, we grow in joy and in love.  In this regard, Saint Francis of Assisi is an excellent example, for he greeted all whom he met as brother or sister.  Saint Francis knew that everyone has the same needs: to be respected, welcomed, heard and saved.  Indeed, this is the Good News and a core tenet of our Christian faith.  God’s saving love is for everyone, no exceptions.  Thus, Jesus commands us to imitate his love (cfr. Jn 15:12), so that we might become sons and daughters of our one Father.  As brothers and sisters in Christ, we build bonds of unity and trust when we support each other and do not turn our backs on those in need.  May the Lord free us from all selfishness and division and renew us in hope that we may faithfully imitate his generous love for all people.
