Pope Francis

Francis urged a packed St. Peter’s Square following his weekly Angelus blessing Sunday to give the Bible the same place in daily life as cellphones, asking:

     “What would happen if we turned back when we forget it,  if we opened it more times a day, if we read the message of God contained in the Bible the way we read messages on our cellphones.”

Response: Wow, I wonder if I am not guilty of this and I study the Bible daily but check my cell all day long. Next time you are in a long line or waiting for a doctor’s appt. check out what everyone is doing these days. Years ago everyone use to have their noses in magazines but that is no longer the case.

Of course I do have my favorite Bible app on it so there you go! Signs of the time for sure.                *Top
