Pope Francis on the Season of Christmas and the Meaning Jesus Brings to Our Lives

"On New Year's Eve, Pope Francis invited everyone to trust in Jesus Christ, the person who can give meaning to the ups and downs of daily life.

"The Child Jesus 'does not disappoint,' the pope said on Dec. 31 in St. Peter's Basilica. 'Let us follow him on our daily journey: he brings time to its fullness, he gives meaning to what we do and to the days we live. Let us trust in joyful times and in sorrowful times: the hope he gives us is a hope that never disappoints.'"

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