Christians experience daily obstacles and struggles. But even though you aren’t immune to life’s day-to-day challenges, you have the power of Jesus Christ to overcome them! His power is available every day to help you win not only the big battles, but the little daily battles as well. God has an abundant life in store for you, which includes victory over the little things in your life that may seem big. Nothing can prevent you from being all that God wants you to be — so choose to claim victory today in the name of Jesus!

The Pope then alternately “blessed” and hugged the two children.
THAT SURELY DID NOT ANSWER THE POOR CHILDREN’S PROBLEMS DID IT?
