General Audience day:

Conscious of being just a “murmur”, man is astonished to discover the Messiah with him, the Lord of the universe, who “lowered the heavens” as described in Psalm 143. Such was the subject the Pope spoke about in this week’s general audience in the Paul VI Hall before a crowd of 8,000 people. A group of children from Beslan (Russia) was also present.
