Then, Pope Francis continued, to have life every day “it is enough to fix your gaze on Jesus crucified and risen, find him in the sacraments and in prayer, recognize him present, believe in him, allow yourself to be touched by his grace and guided by his example. , experience the joy of loving like Him.”
The Holy Father then highlighted that “each encounter with Jesus, a living encounter with Him, allows us to have more life. We must seek Jesus, allow ourselves to be found –because He seeks us–, open our hearts to encounter Jesus.”
