"I accepted it even if it was beyond my strength." - Pope Benedict XVI

It was interesting that when Pope Benedict was asked by a child during an audience whether he imagined of becoming pope. Pope Benedict replied that "I accepted it, even though it seemed to me to be something that went beyond my strength." This is a very significant statement especially when the church is now preparing to observe the year of priests. On this Pentecost Sunday let us be reminded that with the Holy Ghost descending on the Church, the powers of the Kingdom was confirmed. Thus with confidence, the fisherman from Galilee has now become the wise ruler of the Church on earth. Guiding and teaching the nations of the ways of the Gospel.
