When hope seems long gone, Christians can turn to Jesus to overcome being resigned to despair and regain the desire to be healed, Pope Leo XIV said.
Hope
“Blessed are those who have not lost hope” is the theme for the fifth World Day of Grandparents and the Elderly, which will be observed in the Catholic Church July 27.
While calling himself an “old man” and saying he never expected to be pope this long, Pope Francis said he still has dreams for the future.
Christians should make a practice each night of identifying signs of hope, even small ones, that came their way during the day, Pope Francis wrote.
