Year of St. Paul - Optimism


Optimism

Jesus, the Good Shepherd, acts in souls with his grace.

“My grace is sufficient for you” (2 Cor 12:9), the Apostle Paul heard the Lord answer when he asked the Lord to spare him suffering. May this very awareness always nourish your faith and stimulate within you the search for ways to reach the hearts of all with the healthy optimism that you must always spread around you.
