“It is very beautiful to think of our life with the Lord as a relationship with a friend which grows day by day. Friendship with God. Have you ever thought about this? Yet, this is the way! Let’s think about God who gives us…doesn’t God give us so much? God loves us, He wants us to be his friends. Friendship with God changes the heart. Piety is one of the great gifts of the Holy Spirit, which gives us the ability to recognize God’s fatherhood.
We have a tender Father, an affectionate Father, a Father who loves us, who has always loved us. When we experience this, our hearts melt and doubts, fears, feelings of unworthiness are dissolved. Nothing can hinder this love that comes from being in contact with the Lord.”
Pope Francis
