Audiens |
| 1- Tidens nåd och förbundet mellan livets åldrar | 23/02-2022 |
| The young must dialogue with the old, and the #old with the young. And this bridge will be the transmission of wisdom in humanity, because the elderly are like the roots of the tree, and the young are like the flowers and the fruit. #BlessingOfTheTimes #GeneralAudience | @Pontifex |
| 2. Ett långt liv, mening och möjlighet | 02/03-2022 |
|
The alliance between the two extreme generations of life – children
and the elderly – also helps the other two – young people and adults
– to bond with each other, to make everyone’s existence richer in
humanity. #GeneralAudience #BlessingOfTime @LaityFamilyLife |

| 3. Ålderdomen en resurs för tanklösa unga | 16/03-2022 |
| God entrusts the task of saving humanity from the flood to the eldest of all, the “righteous” Noah. In his care for life in all its forms, Noah obeys God’s command, repeating the tender and generous gesture of creation. #BlessingOfTime #GeneralAudience | @Pontifex |
| 4. Farewell and inheritance: Memory and testimony | 23/03-2022 |
| The elderly enter the promised land, which God desires for every generation, when they offer to the young the beautiful initiation of their witness. Then, guided by the Lord Jesus, the old and the young together enter into His Kingdom of life and love. #BlessingOfTime | @Pontifex |
| Ålderdomen kan präglas av andlig vitalitet | 30/03-2022 |
| The elderly can teach the younger generations how to trust in God, how to be merciful, and how to pray fervently not only in good times, but especially in difficult ones. #BlessingOfTime @PontAcadLife @LaityFamilyLife | @Pontifex |
| 6. “Honour thy father and mother” (Ex 20:12): honouring a life lived | 20/04-2022 |
| "Honour your father and mother" (Deut 5:16) is a solemn commitment. It is not just about our own father and mother, but about the old age of life… We received the love of our parents, of our grandparents, and now we return this love to them. #BlessingOfTime | @Pontifex |
| Unga och gamla förenade så att Guds välsignelser får blomstra (Ruts bok) | 27/04-2022 |
| If the young open themselves to gratitude for what they have received, and if the elderly take the initiative of relaunching their future, nothing can stop the flourishing of God’s blessings among peoples! #BlessingOfTime | @Pontifex |
| Äldre måste upprätthålla trons heder för unga (2 Mackabéerboken 6:18-31) | 04/05-2022 |
| Dear elderly brothers and sisters, please look at the young people. The young people are watching us and our consistency can open up a beautiful path of life for them. Hypocrisy, on the other hand, will do so much harm. Let us #PrayTogether for one another. #BlessingOfTime | @Pontifex |
| Äldre är inte sköra pensionärer utan personer med mycket att ge (Judiths bok) | 11/05-2022 |
| A long life – so the Bible teaches – is a blessing. The #ElderlyAndGrandparents are signs of the goodness of God who bestows life in abundance. Blessed is the house where an older person lives! Blessed is the family that honours its grandparents! #BlessingOfTime | @Pontifex |
| “De äldre lär oss uthållighet i tron” (Jobs bok) | 18/05-2022 |
| When we find ourselves faced with evil, we need to learn, from the example of so many older people, to unite our prayer to that of Jesus, who abandons himself to the Father on the cross. #BlessingOfTime @LaityFamilyLife @PontAcadLife | @Pontifex |
| Äldres visdom kontra tidens kunskapslättja (Qoheleths bok) | 25/05-2022 |
| Rich in wisdom and humour, #elderly people do so much good for the young! They save young people from the temptation of a knowledge of the world that is sad and devoid of the wisdom of life. #BlessingOfTime @LaityFamilyLife @PontAcadLife | @Pontifex |
| De äldre kan inspirera till ett mer rättvist och medmänskligt samhälle | 01/06-2022 |
| The elderly, in their weakness, can teach those in other ages of life that we all need to surrender ourselves to the Lord, to invoke his help. For God is always our hope and our support. #BlessingofTime | @Pontifex |
| De äldre vittnar om Guds ömhet | 08/06-2022 |
| Those who pass through the period of old age can discover a new mission in the light of the Gospel: to be signs and instruments of God's love that indicate what the definitive goal is to which we are called, eternal life with God. #BlessingofTime | @Pontifex |
| Besök äldre och hjälp dem att tjäna | 15/06-2022 |
| The elderly who preserve the disposition for healing, consolation, intercession for their brothers and sisters, are perhaps the greatest witnesses of that gratitude that accompanies the faith. #BlessingOfTime | @Pontifex |
| Ålderdomen är en tid att finna styrka i svagheteten | 22/06-2022 |
| Dependence increases with illness, with old age, and we are no longer self-sufficient like we were before. Faith also matures here. Jesus is also with us here. Here, the wealth of our faith lived well during our journey through life also springs forth. #BlessingOfTime | @Pontifex |
| Ålderdomen är en "fruktbar tid att vittna om Kristus" | 10/08-2022 |
| Old age is the phase in life most suited to spreading the joyful news that life is the initiation to a final fulfilment. And the best is yet to come. May God grant us an old age capable of this! | @Pontifex |
| "Alliansen mellan unga och äldre räddar mänskligheten" | 17/08-2022 |
| The witness of the elderly unites the generations of life. Same with the dimensions of time: past, present and future. The various ages of life are not separate worlds competing with each other. The alliance of the elderly and children will save the human family. #BlessingOfTime | @Pontifex |
| "Ålderdom är där visdomen vävs" | 24/08-2022 |
| As we approach the end of our lives, the essentials of life that we hold most dear become definitively clear to us. Our whole life appears like a seed that will have to be buried so that its flower and its fruit can be born. | @Pontifex |
