The gospel of hope enables us to discern the consoling presence of God’s kingdom in the midst of this world and offers confidence, serenity, and direction in place of that hopelessness which inevitably spawns fear, hostility, and violence in the heart of individuals and in society as a whole.
Ad Limina Address to the Bishops of the United States April 2 2004
Only Jesus knows what is in your hearts and your deepest desires.
Only he, who has loved you to the end, can fulfill your aspirations.
His are words of eternal life, words that give meaning to life.
No one apart from Christ can give you true happiness.

God wishes to save all his children, especially those who have gone away from him and are looking for the way back. The Good Shepherd is always going in search of the lost sheep, and when he finds them he brings them back to the flock.
