The Pope chose to address this new crisis in his closing remarks following the Angelus prayer\u2014the first he has led in Rome again after his summer break at Castel Gandolfo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The pontiff stated that he is following \u201cwith concern the alarming situation in Ceuta, praying to God, through the intercession of Our Lady of Africa, that solutions promoting peace, stability, and justice may be found.\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In his commentary on the Gospel, the Pope wished to emphasize that the signs of Jesus, which we read about in the Gospel, \u201creveal his special self-giving for us\u2014that is, the salvation He brings to the world. The Lord presents Himself as the One who gives meaning to life, freeing it from evil and sin.\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Le\u00f3n XIV explained that when Christ heals the deaf and the blind, \u201cHe reveals the magnificent work of redemption that is accomplished in Him\u201d and that by miraculously feeding the multitudes\u2014and even through food\u2014\u201cHe demonstrates that the Lord\u2019s gift is universal, and that His Providence toward us never fails.\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Pope has stated that \u201choarding and discarding, on the other hand, are two sides of the same evil: greed. This disease of the soul causes one to lose one\u2019s senses because it intoxicates with riches, to the point of forgetting those who weep from hunger and cry out from thirst.\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is an all-too-common oversight in our society, and the pontiff has urged us to \u201cas we savor the grace of the Eucharist, commit ourselves to bearing witness to its beauty in our daily actions, beginning with the blessing of the table, when we share bread with family and friends. In the company of Jesus, even vacations can become a time of serene fellowship, including those who are by our side and in need.\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the conclusion of the Marian prayer, Leo XIV referred\u2014along with the prayer for Ceuta\u2014to the need to continue praying for peace, \u201cso that wars may cease throughout the world and diplomatic solutions may be found to conflicts,\u201d and he sought to once again place the focus on the greatest victims of these situations: \u201cthe weakest and most defenseless: children, the elderly, and the sick.\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
