User’s Guide to the Fourth Sunday of Lent
In his Angelus message, Pope Francis reflected on Jesus’ parable in the Gospel of Matthew about a landowner who gives all of his laborers the full daily wage, even those who were employed late in the day and worked only one hour.
"Today is not so much the time for persuasive and convincing discourses; it is above all the time for witnessing because, while apologia is divisive, the beauty of life attracts."
God sees all the beauty of the universe at a glance, but he didn’t die for the universe. He died for you.
You are uniquely special — someone so precious and unrepeatable that your absence would leave a gaping hole in the fabric of existence.
‘This Gospel teaches us that we all need to enter the house of the Father and participate in his joy, in the feast of mercy and brotherhood,’ the Holy Father said of the Parable of the Prodigal Son on May 11.
