Ave Maria! With remarkable courage and extraordinary humility, our beloved Holy Father has made the pivotal decision to resign from his Petrine ministry at the end of this month. There is nothing I can say that hasn't already been said or will be said in days to come. All I can, do and will say are many prayers of enormous gratitude to God for giving us such a wise, loving, faithful shepherd in Pope Benedict XVI. And with deep affection and great respect for our Holy Father, I beg our dear Lord to continue to give him strength and to bless him with peace (Ps 29:11). Deo gratias!
May the glory of the Lord endure for ever:
the Lord shall rejoice in his works.
~Psalm 104:31
