Last week he spoke to workers and encouraged them to let Christ into their daily lives. Later he visited the city’s sick and shared his lunchtime with homeless people. When the time came to celebrate the sacrifice of the Mass he did so in a football stadium. I think he sets a great example and his entire papacy seems to have been underpinned by chapter 13 of St Paul’s first letter to the Corinthians:
“If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.
“If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.
“If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. Etc. etc etc.
Good man this guy.
