“In Omnibus Vincit Amor”
John the Baptist saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.
He is the one of whom I said, ‘A man is coming after me who ranks ahead of me
because he existed before me.’ I did not know him,
but the reason why I came baptizing with water was that he might be made known to Israel.”
John testified further, saying, “I saw the Spirit come down like a dove from heaven
and remain upon him. I did not know him,
but the one who sent me to baptize with water told me, ‘On whomever you see the Spirit come down and remain,
he is the one who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.’ Now I have seen and testified that he is the Son of God.”

POPE FRANCIS: WE ARE A PEOPLE WITH A MOTHER, WE ARE NOT ORPHANS
…In the Gospels, Mary appears as a woman of few words, with no great speeches or deeds, but with an attentive gaze capable of guarding the life and mission of her Son, and for this reason, of
everything that he loves. She was able to watch over the beginnings of the first Christian community, and in this way she learned to be the
mother of a multitude. She drew near to the most diverse situations in order to sow hope. She accompanied the crosses borne in the silence of her children’s hearts. How many devotions, shrines and chapels in the most far-off places, how many pictures in our homes, remind us of
this great truth. Mary gave us a mother’s warmth, the warmth that shelters us amid troubles, the maternal warmth that keeps anything or

POPE FRANCIS: WE ARE A PEOPLE WITH A MOTHER, WE ARE NOT ORPHANS
…In the Gospels, Mary appears as a woman of few words, with no great speeches or deeds, but with an attentive gaze capable of guarding the life and mission of her Son, and for this reason, of
everything that he loves. She was able to watch over the beginnings of the first Christian community, and in this way she learned to be the

this great truth. Mary gave us a mother’s warmth, the warmth that shelters us amid troubles, the maternal warmth that keeps anything or
….Continued: POPE FRANCIS anyone from extinguishing in the heart of the Church the revolution of tenderness inaugurated by her Son. Where there is a mother, there is
tenderness. By her motherhood, Mary shows us that humility and tenderness are not virtues of the weak but of the strong. She teaches
us that we do not have to mistreat others in order to feel important (cf. Evangelii Gaudium, 288). God’s holy people have always acknowledged and hailed her as the Holy Mother of God. To
celebrate Mary as Mother of God and our mother at the beginning of the new year means recalling a certainty that will accompany our
days: we are a people with a Mother; we are not orphans. Mothers are the strongest antidote to our individualistic and egotistic tendencies, to our lack of openness and our indifference. A society without mothers would not only be a cold society, but a society that has lost its heart, lost the “feel of home”. A society without mothers would be a merciless society, one that has room only for calculation
and speculation. Because mothers, even at the worst times, are capable of testifying to tenderness, unconditional self-sacrifice and
the strength of hope. I have learned much from those mothers whose children are in prison, or lying in hospital beds, or in bondage to
drugs, yet, come cold or heat, rain or draught, never stop fighting for what is best for them. Or those mothers who in refugee camps, or
even the midst of war, unfailingly embrace and support their children’s sufferings. Mothers who literally give their lives so that none of their children will perish. Where there is a mother, there is unity, there is
belonging, belonging as children. To begin the year by recalling God’s goodness in the maternal face of Mary, in the maternal face of
the Church, in the faces of our own mothers, protects us from the corrosive disease of being “spiritual orphans”. It is the sense of being
orphaned that the soul experiences when it feels motherless and lacking the tenderness of God, when the sense of belonging to a
family, a people, a land, to our God, grows dim. This sense of being orphaned lodges in a narcissistic heart capable of looking only to itself
and its own interests. It grows when what we forget that life is a gift we have received – and owe to others – a gift we are called to share
in this common home. It was such a self-centred orphanhood that led Cain to ask: “Am I my brother's keeper?” (Gen 4:9). It was as if to say:
he doesn’t belong to me; I do not recognize him. This attitude of spiritual orphanhood is a cancer that silently eats away at and
debases the soul. We become all the more debased, inasmuch as nobody belongs to us and we belong to no one. I debase the earth because it does not belong to me; I debase others because they do not belong to me; I debase God because I do not belong to him, and in the end we debase our very selves, since we forget who we are and the divine “family name” we bear. The loss of the ties that bind us, so typical of our fragmented and divided culture, increases this
sense of orphanhood and, as a result, of great emptiness and loneliness. The lack of physical (and not virtual) contact is cauterizing our hearts (cf. Laudato Si’, 49) and making us lose the capacity for
tenderness and wonder, for pity and compassion. Spiritual orphanhood makes us forget what it means to be children,
grandchildren, parents, grandparents, friends and believers. It makes us forget the importance of playing, of singing, of a smile, of rest, of gratitude. Celebrating the feast of the Holy Mother of God makes us smile once more as we realize that we are a people, that we belong, that only within a community, within a family, can we as persons find the “climate”, the “warmth” that enables us to grow in humanity, and
not merely as objects meant to “consume and be consumed”. To celebrate the feast of the Holy Mother of God reminds us that we are not interchangeable items of merchandise or information processors.
We are children, we are family, we are God’s People… (Homily: 1 January 2017, Holy Mass on the Solemnity of Mary; the
Holy Mother of God, Vatican Basilica, Vatican City)
