"Like the Magi, let us prostrate ourselves, let us surrender ourselves to God in the amazement of adoration.
Let us adore God and not our ego; let us adore God and not the false idols who seduce us with the allure of prestige and power, with the allure of false news. Let us adore God lest we bow before passing things and the seductive but empty logic of evil".
The Pope said so in the homily of the Mass for the Epiphany.
Pope Francis also asked to make room in life for God who is true love "that does not pass, that does not set, that does not break even in the face of fragility, failures and betrayals".
"The journey of faith begins" when "we stop keeping ourselves in a neutral space and decide to inhabit the uncomfortable spaces of life" also made up of "sufferings that dig into the flesh".
"In these moments those irrepressible questions arise from our hearts, which open us to the search for God" and among these: "Where is that love that does not pass away, that does not fade, that does not break even in the face of fragility, failures and betrayals?"
