We have every reason to celebrate this day.
Habemus Papam! We have a pope!
With a humble bow in order to receive the prayers of the people of God we first encountered Pope Francis. Today all of us bow before God with our desire to receive the infinite mercy of the Lord. Despite the sins that we bring here before God we are invited today to encounter God's mercy and for that we can celebrate this day. Through the mercy of God that we encounter today we are restored to His love and our sins are healed. May this sacrament also give us the grace to live humbly through our actions and deeds under the episcopal motto of our pope: "Lowly yet Chosen."
We all join him in this motto by coming here lowly in our sin, but despite it to be chosen to encounter the great mercy of God.
