Guest House Daily Reflections

Like the Epistle to the Hebrews, Pope Leo in his first New Year’s message urges us when things are dark and fearful to look at the lives and hopes of gospel witnesses all around us: “Just as on Easter evening  Jesus entered the place where the disciples were gathered in fear and discouragement, so too the peace of the risen Christ continues to pass though doors and barriers in the voices and faces of his witnesses. This gift enables us to remember goodness, to recognize it as victorious and to choose it again and do so together.”
