VOCATION EXPLAINED BY THE POPE
The response to a call is always full of faith YES
Faith and love are not mere words or vague sentimentality.
Believing in God and love God
means to live a life consistent with the light of the Gospel
and this is not easy.
Yes! Often it takes a great courage
to go against the current fashion or mentality of this world.
But again, this is the only way
to build a fulfilling life and full.
And if despite your personal effort to follow Christ,
ever you feel you weak in the fulfillment of his commandments,
do not be discouraged! Christ continues to expect you ...
He, Jesus is the Good Shepherd who carries on his shoulders
like a lost sheep and cherish to be cured.
Christ is the friend who never disappoints.
Young Gospel adds: "What lack I yet?".
That young heart, moved by God's grace,
desire to feel more generous, more giving and more love.
A more typical of what is very new;
why can not imagine a loving heart,
not haggle over whether to give without measure.
"Jesus looked at him, loved him and said come and follow me."
Those who have entered the path of life
in keeping the commandments
the Lord offers them new horizons;
He offers them higher goals
and calls them to surrender to that love without reservation.
Discovering this call, this vocation,
notice is that Christ has his sights set on you and invites you,
with the look, the total commitment in love.
Given this outlook, before this love,
the heart opens wide for him and is able to say yes.
If any of you feel a call to follow him more closely,
him to devote the whole heart
as the Apostles John and Paul, who is generous,
do not be afraid, because there is nothing to fear
when the prize that awaits us is God himself who,
sometimes without knowing it, every young looking.
Young people listening to me, young people who, above all,
you want to know what to do to attain eternal life,
Always say yes to God and He will fill you with his joy.
"One thing you lack Come and follow me."
Maybe Jesus will be repeated today, every one of you:
"One thing you lack"?
Maybe you're asking for even more love,
more generosity, more sacrifice?
Yes, the love of Christ demands sacrifice and generosity.
Follow Christ and serve the world in its name requires courage and fortitude.
There is no room for fear or for selfishness.
Have no fear because,
when Love is demanding and ask for sacrifice.
So I say to every one of you:
Hear the call of Christ when you feel that you says:
"Follow me" walking on my feet!
Stand by my side. Remain in my love!
You're asking you to optes for Him
Option for Christ and his way of life!
At his command to love! Real love is demanding.
And I would not fulfill my mission is not to affirm very clearly.
Love requires effort and personal commitment
to fulfill the will of God.
And you, my young friends, cultivate the ideal,
love life and give him a noble purpose!
Are you in a moment of existence
when you should talk to God a lot of men,
for ye can speak later to the men of God.
There is a cliché that you certainly know,
but you want to remember:
"There are many rewarding three other three:
much study, much of science;
Much thought, much wisdom;
much virtue, much peace. " Courage!
And the *** Mary, Mother of the Church
Our Lady of Fatima is always present in your life,
their example and their protection
and you get constant serenity,
consolation and joy of His Son Jesus Christ,
on whose behalf I bless you with all your heart.
