Pope Benedict XVI: "The more we love God and the more constantly we pray..."

 An excerpt from Pope Benedict's catechesis on Saint Catherine of Genoa:

"Dear friends, we must never forget that the more we love God and the more constantly we pray, the better we will succeed in truly loving those who surround us, who are close to us, so that we can see in every person the Face of the Lord whose love knows no bounds and makes no distinctions. The mystic does not create distance from others or an abstract life, but rather approaches other people so that they may begin to see and act with God’s eyes and heart."

General Audience of January 12, 2011
