S Augustine said of S Ambrose, “He was one of those who SPEAK the TRUTH, and speak it well, judiciously, pointedly, & with BEAUTY & POWER of expression”.
I could say the same thing of Pope Benedict XVI. I wish many more listened or read his writings, in stead of, reading just headlines and the anti-Catholic groups.
It was a poignant moment seeing him leave the Vatican Apartment. A tinge of sadness as he will be missed, but there is also a joy. A joy because Jesus instituted a Church that is a family. Truly God loves us that we became adopted and heirs and it has been made visible by the Church.
