Pope Francis on the Holy Spirit Purifying Our Hearts

"It is the Holy Spirit who leads us away from our sins and towards purity of heart, Pope Francis said at the general audience Wednesday.

"Speaking via livestream due to the coronavirus crisis, the pope said April 1 that the purification of our hearts must begin by recognizing the evil that lies within us and renouncing it.

"'This is a decisive maturity: when we realize that our worst enemy is often hidden in our heart,' he said. 'The noblest battle is against the inner deceptions that generate our sins.'"

A recent Catholic News Agency article reported on this message from Pope Francis.
