It’s amazing to me how people can feel so upbeat and inspired after listening to an inspiring sermon or speech, whether it’s at Mass, politics or sports.
Recently, Pope Francis gave an outstanding speech at the 50th World Communications Day. His message was telling political and religious leaders that when they speak, to be “inspired by mercy.” Watch what you say and how you say it. Don’t exploit others or “fan the flames of mistrust, fear and hatred” with your words.
Maybe, just maybe, our “national political leaders” could once again take an example from His Holiness.
