DILEXI TE (I HAVE LOVED YOU)
$ 0.92
Description
This declaration of love, taken from the Book of Revelation, reflects the inexhaustible mystery that Pope Francis reflected upon in the Encyclical Dilexit Nos on the human and divine love of the heart of Jesus Christ. For this reason, in continuity with the Encyclical Dilexit Nos, Pope Francis was preparing in the last months of his life an Apostolic Exhortation on the Church rsquo;s care for the poor, to which he gave the title Dilexi Te, as if Christ speaks those words to each of them, saying: ldquo;You have but little power, rdquo; yet ldquo;I have loved you rdquo; (Rev 3:9). Pope Leo XIV is happy to make this document his own mdash; adding some reflections mdash; and to issue it at the beginning of his own pontificate, since he shares the desire of his beloved predecessor that all Christians come to appreciate the close connection between Christ rsquo;s love and his summons to care for the poor. The pope too through this Exhortation considers it essential to insist on this path to holiness, for ldquo;in this call to recognize him in the poor and the suffering, we see revealed the very heart of Christ, his deepest feelings and choices, which every saint seeks to imitate. rdquo;
