SOBRE LA FALTA DE DOCTRINA Y EL DEBER DE DARLA A CONOCER

4 DE OCTUBRE DE 1903

Venerables hermanos: Salud y bendición apostólica

El peso del Pontificado

Al dirigirnos por primera vez a vosotros desde la suprema cátedra apostólica a la que hemos sido elevados por el inescrutable designio de Dios, no es necesario recordar con cuántas lágrimas y oraciones he m o s intentado rechazar esta enorme carga del Pontificado. Podríamos, aunque Nuestro mérito es absolutamente inferior, aplicar a Nuestra situación la queja de aquel gran santo, Anselmo, cuando a pesar de su oposición, incluso de su aversión, fue obligado a aceptar el honor del episcopado. Porque Nos tenemos que recurrir a las mis mas muestras de desconsuelo que él profirió para exponer con qué ánimo, con qué actitud hemos aceptado la pesadísima carga del oficio de apacentar la grey de Cristo. Mis lágrimas son testimonio -esto dice-, así como mis quejas y los suspiros de lamento de mi coraz6n; cuales en ninguna ocasión y por ningún dolor recuerdo haber derramado hasta el día en que cayó sobre mí la pesada suerte del arzobispado de Canterbury. No pudieron dejar de advertirlo todos aquellos que en aquel día contemplaron mi rostro... Yo con un color más propio de un muerto que de una persona viva, pali decía con doloroso estupor. A decir verdad, hasta ese momento hice todo lo posible por rechazar lejos de mí esa elección, o por mejor decir esa extorsión. Pero ya, de grado o por fuerza, tengo que confesar que a diario los designios de Dios resisten más y más a mis planes, de modo que comprendo que es absolutamente imposible oponerme a ello. De ahí que, vencido por la fuerza no de los hombres sino de Dios, contra la que no hay defensa posible, entendí que mi deber era adoptar una única decisión: después de haber orado cuanto pude y haber intentado que, si era posible, ese cáliz pasara de mí sin beberlo... entregueme por completo al sentir ya la voluntad de Dios, dejando de lado mi propio sentir y mi voluntad [1]. leer...

Readings

Truly we are passing through disastrous times, when we may well make our own the lamentation of the Prophet: “There is no truth, and there is no mercy, and there is no knowledge of God in the land” (Hosea 4:1). Yet in the midst of this tide of evil, the Virgin Most Merciful rises before our eyes like a rainbow, as the arbiter of peace between God and man. - Pope Saint Pius X
God could have given us the Redeemer of the human race, and the Founder of the Faiths in another way than through the Virgin, but since Divine Providence has been pleased that we should have the Man-God through Mary, who conceived Him by the Holy Spirit and bore Him in her womb, it only remains for us to receive Christ from the hands of Mary. - Pope Saint Pius X
My hope is in Christ, who strengthens the weakest by His Divine help. I can do all in Him who strengthens me. His Power is infinite, and if I lean on him, it will be mine. His Wisdom is infinite, and if I look to Him for counsel, I shall not be deceived. His Goodness is infinite, and if my trust is stayed in Him, I shall not be abandoned. - Pope Saint Pius X
Let the storm rage and the sky darken – not for that shall we be dismayed. If we trust as we should in Mary, we shall recognize in her, the Virgin Most Powerful “who with virginal foot did crush the head of the serpent.” - Pope Saint Pius X
Holy Communion is the shortest and safest way to Heaven. - Pope Saint Pius X
The collection of psalms found in Scripture, composed as it was under divine inspiration, has, from the very beginnings of the Church, shown a wonderful power of fostering devotion among Christians as they offer “to God a continuous sacrifice of praise, the harvest of lips blessing his name.” Following a custom already established in the Old Law, the psalms have played a conspicuous part in the sacred liturgy itself, and in the divine office. Augustine expresses this well when he says: “God praised himself so that man might give him fitting praise; because God chose to praise himself man found the way in which to bless God.” The psalms have also a wonderful power to awaken in our hearts the desire for every virtue. Athanasius says: “The psalms seem to me to be like a mirror, in which the person using them can see himself, and the stirrings of his own heart; he can recite them against the background of his own emotions.” Augustine says in his Confessions: “How I wept when I heard you hymns and canticles, being deeply moved by the sweet singing of your Church. Those voices flowed into my earts, truth filtered into my heart, and from my heart surged waves of devotion.” Indeed, who could fail to be moved by those many passages in the psalms which set forth so profoundly the infinite majesty of God, his omnipotence, his justice and goodness and clemency, too deep for words, and all the other infinite qualities of his that deserve our praise? Who could fail to be roused to the same emotions by the prayers of thanksgiving to God for blessings received by the petitions, so humble and confident, for blessings still awaited, by the cries of a soul in sorrow for sin committed? Who would not be fired wiht love as he looks on the likeness of Christ, the redeemer, here so lovingly foretold? His was “the voice” Augustine heard in every psalm, the voice of praise, of suffering, of joyful expectation, of present distress.” - from the apostolic consititution of Pope Saint Pius X on Sacred Scripture
