Viva la France

I was watching the Pope in France tonight. He was at Notre Dame tonight and tomorrow he goes to Lourdes. Lourdes has miraculous healing powers. Thousands of people go there everyday for the healing waters discovered by a young woman, Bernadette, in the 1850's. I only watched a few moments of the Pope and I was trying to take notes. I couldn't keep up though! He did mention this was the year of Saint Paul the Apostle and 1 Corinthians. I got so excited when he talked about how the Holy Spirit helps you understand the mysteries of God. The Pope also said to speak with boldness!!! I love it even more!!!

I Corinthians 2:12
Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things freely given to us by God.
