More From Pope Francis

To follow jesus implies that we enter into a way of life that is given character and shape and direction by the one who calls us. to follow jesus means picking up rhythms and ways of doing things that are often unsaid but always derivative from jesus, formed by the influence of jesus. to follow jesus means that we can't separate what jesus is saying from what jesus is doing and the way that he is doing it. to follow jesus is as much, or maybe even more, about feet as it is about ears and eyes" (the way of jesus, eugene h. peterson, 22).

Faith stands or falls on the truth that the future with god is more satisfying than the one promised by sin. where this truth is embraced and god is cherished above all, the power of sin is broken. the power of sin is the power of deceit. sin has power through promising a false future. in temptation sin comes to us and says: "the future with god on his narrow way is hard and unhappy, but the way i promise is pleasant and satisfying." the power of sin is in the power of this lie.
Lying Fall Broken
Love is like grass. if you fall on it, it may leave a stain and some temporary pain. but you'll get over the pain, it will eventually stop hurting. now maybe the stain ruined your favourite pair of jeans, or maybe it was nothing special that was ruined, but either way the stain remains there. and with time, it will begin to fade, but it will always be there, a permanent reminder that you, too, once fell.
Hurt Pain Fall
I think that the bible teaches that homosexuality is a sin, but the bible also teaches that pride is a sin, jealousy is a sin, and hate is a sin, evil thoughts are a sin. so i don't think that homosexuality should be chosen as the overwhelming sin that we are doing today.

For my omniscience paid i toll in infinite remorse of soul. all sin was of my sinning, all atoning mine, and mine the gall of all regret. mine was the weight of every brooded wrong, the hate that stood behind each envious thrust, mine every greed, mine every lust. and all the while for every grief, each suffering, i craved relief with individual desire, – craved all in vain! and felt fierce fire about a thousand people crawl; perished with each, — then mourned for all!
Regret Hate Grief
