“Just as God called Abraham by name to receive a promise, so does he continue to call each Christian personally to enter into relationship with him, Pope Francis said at [a recent daily Mass].
“‘We Christians have been called one-by-one: none of us is Christian by pure chance. No one,’ he said during his homily at the chapel of Saint Martha House in the Vatican.”
In a recent homily on the readings for the Tuesday of the Twelfth Week in Ordinary Time, Pope Francis reflected on God’s call to each Christian and how He God accompanies each one and calls each one by name. He concluded his homily with a prayer the Lord give us, all of us, a desire to move forward, in the midst of all our problems, with the confidence that He who called us, who promised us so many beautiful things, is with us.
