Spiritual Quote of the Day (Pope Francis, on the Need Not to be ‘Robbed of Hope’)


“First of all I want to tell you something, tell all you young persons: don't let yourselves be robbed of hope. Please, don't let it be stolen from you. The worldly spirit, wealth, the spirit of vanity, arrogance, and pride … all these things steal hope. Where do I find hope? In the poor Jesus, Jesus who made himself poor for us.”—Pope Francis quoted in Thomas C. Fox, “Pope Francis Speaks Again on World Poverty,” National Catholic Reporter, June 7, 2013
