Description

Friends of the Rosary:

Pope Emeritus Pope Benedict XVI left a spiritual testament, dated August 29, 2006, which the Vatican released this week.

His central message was summarized in this sentence:

“What I said earlier of my compatriots, I now say to all who were entrusted to my service in the Church: Stand firm in the faith! Do not be confused!”

This is the entire text:

My Spiritual Testament

When, at this late hour of my life, I look back on the decades I have wandered through, I see first of all how much reason I have to give thanks. Above all, I thank God Himself, the giver of all good gifts, who has given me life and guided me through all kinds of confusion; who has always picked me up when I began to slip, who has always given me anew the light of his countenance. In retrospect, I see and understand that even the dark and arduous stretches of this path were for my salvation and that He guided me well in those very stretches.
