I was very sad to hear of the passing of our Pope. You could see in his face and by his laboured breathing how much he had suffered and was still suffering. It is good that he is now out of pain and I am sure that he has his reward in heaven. We are so blessed that he served us so well and gave us such a good example of how to lead a humble, loving and self-sacrificing life.
I hope that the next Pope will follow his great example and may the Cardinals allow themselves to be led by the Holy Spirit in selecting a successor.
God bless,
