Pope Francis on Peace I think it will help us to think a little: what is my peace, where do I find peace? In things, in well-being, in travel – but now, today we cannot travel – in possessions, in so many things, or do I find peace as a gift of the Lord?
Do I have to pay for peace or do I receive it for free from the Lord?
What is my peace? When I miss something, do I get angry? This is not the Peace of the Lord. This is one of the tests.
Am I calm in my peace, “Do I fall asleep”? It’s not the Lord’s.
Am I at peace and want to communicate it to others and accomplish something? That is the peace of the Lord!
Even in bad, difficult times, does that peace remain in me? It’s the Lord’s.
And the peace of the Lord is fruitful also for me because it is full of hope, that is, it looks toward Heaven. Homily 2020.05.12
