In his reflections for the Sunday Angelus, Pope Francis encourages us to be like the first disciples by seeking the Lord and always remaining with Him for the fullness of life that brings eternal joy.
The Pope pointed out how it was not easy to follow the Lord, as the disciples did not always understand what the Master was saying or doing. And it was a struggle for them to accept the radical nature of Jesus' love for all, the ultimate demands of his mercy, and the Lord's action going beyond the norms of institutional religions and traditions.
The challenge to follow the Lord also regards each one of us, the Pope explained, as we also struggle to understand His ways and to make His criteria and example our own. The key is always to stay close to the Lord, to follow His Gospel, to receive His grace in the sacraments, the Pope added, to be with Him in prayer and follow His example of humility and charity.
The Pope then recommended we reflect on how much Jesus is present in our own lives and whether we allow ourselves to be touched and moved by His words. “May Mary, who received Jesus, the Word of God, in her flesh, help us to listen to Him and never leave Him.”
