Migrants and refugees are not pawns on the chessboard of humanity. They are children, women and men who leave or who are forced to leave their homes for various reasons, who share a legitimate desire for knowing and having, but above all for being more
To be a mother is a great treasure. Mothers, in their unconditional and sacrificial love for their children, are the antidote to individualism; they are the greatest enemies against war.
In the roughest moments, remember: God is our Father; God does not abandon his children.
To live as true children of God means to love our neighbour and to be close to those who are lonely and in difficulty
A population that does not take care of the elderly and of children and the young has no future, because it abuses both its memory and its promise.
Every child who, rather than being born, is condemned unjustly to being aborted, bears the face of Jesus Christ, bears the face of the Lord, who even before he was born, and then just after birth, experienced the world’s rejection. And every elderly person…even if he is ill or at the end of his days, bears the face of Christ. They cannot be discarded, as the ‘culture of waste’ suggests!
It is horrific even to think that there are children, victims of abortion, who will never see the light of day
How many innocent people and children suffer in the world! Lord, grant us your peace!
Let us pray to the Lord and ask him to protect the family in the crisis with which the devil wants to destroy it. Families are the domestic church where Jesus grows in the love of a married couple, in the lives of their children.
Let's not be naive, we're not talking about a simple political battle; it is a destructive pretension against the plan of God. We are not talking about a mere bill, but rather a machination of the Father of Lies that seeks to confuse and deceive the children of God.
To be friends with God means to pray with simplicity, like children talking to their parents.
Wars shatter so many lives. I think especially of children robbed of their childhood.
Dear parents, teach your children to pray. Pray with them.
May we learn to say “thank you” to God and to one another. We teach children to do it, and then we forget to do it ourselves!
May we always care for our children, not counting the cost, so that they may never believe themselves to be mistakes, but always know their infinite worth.
Let us ask the Lord for this grace: that our hearts become free and filled with light, so that we can rejoice as children of God.
A society which abandons children and the elderly severs its roots and darkens its future.
In a world often marked by selfishness, a large family is a school of solidarity and sharing; and this attitude is to the benefit of society as a whole.... I always thank the Lord in seeing mothers and fathers of large families, together with their children, committed to the life of the Church and of society.
If we act like children of God, knowing that he loves us, our lives will be made new, filled with serenity and joy.
How often we forget to dedicate ourselves to that which truly matters! We forget that we are children of God.
Every child that isn't born, but is unjustly condemned to be aborted, has the face of Jesus Christ, has the face of the Lord.
It means protecting people, showing loving concern for each and every person, especially children, the elderly, those in need, who are often the last we think about.
Today is [the feast of] Santa Rita, Patron Saint of impossible things - but this seems impossible: let us ask of her this grace, this grace that all, all, all people would do good and that we would encounter one another in this work, which is a work of creation, like the creation of the Father. A work of the family, because we are all children of God, all of us, all of us! And God loves us, all of us! May Santa Rita grant us this grace, which seems almost impossible. Amen.
Let us ask Mary to help us respond to violence, to conflict and to war, with the power of dialogue, reconciliation and love. She is our mother: may she help us to find peace; all of us are her children!
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.
