BEGINNING OF
THE YEAR OF THE FATHER
Year 2000 is the most awaited event by Peter's successor
- THE OUR FATHER.
Many a time you have said to Me: "Teach us to pray as You pray. And I
always replied to you: "I will do that when I see in you the minimum
sufficient preparation so that the prayer may not be a vain formula of human
words, but a real conversation with the Father
- GOD
THE FATHER
My Father is a
King, yet so fatherly; a Judge, yet so tender and loving; He is the Alpha
and the Omega, yet so meek
- GOD
THE FATHER'S LOVE IS DEMANDING
It is in discovering the greatness of God's love that our heart is shaken
by the horror and weight of sin and begins to fear offending God by sin
and being separated from him
- ON
PILGRIMAGE TO THE FATHER'S HOUSE
I came from the Father and have come into the world; again, I am leaving the
world and going to the Father
- THE
FATHER AS "DADDY"
God is a father in his very being; he is always a father since from all
eternity he generates the Word who is consubstantial with him and united to
him in the Holy Spirit "who proceeds from the Father and the Son".
- FATHER'S
LOVE IS GENEROUS AND PROVIDENTIAL
It is your Providence, O Father, that steers its course, because you
have given it a path in the sea, and a safe way through the waves, showing
that you can save from every danger, so that even if a man lacks skill, he
may put to sea.
- TO KNOW GOD
The Holy Father continued his catechesis on God
the Father, saying that knowledge of the Father is not more of
intellectual understanding, but is an encounter with the living God which
takes place as the Holy Spirit transforms us internally.
