Prayer: Francis, the Bishop of Rome
Let us be renewed by God’s mercy…. Let us become agents of this
mercy, channels through which God can water the earth, protect all creation,
and make justice and peace flourish.
When I read this I immediately thought of Teresa of Avila's poem "Christ has no body". Thank you for sharing this.
ReplyDelete... and for me, Francis' great prayer on peace!
DeleteOf course, especially with our fervent prayers for peace at this time in solidarity with Our Holy Father.
