Vaticaanstad, 13 november 2024 \/ 09:50 uur (CNA).<\/p>\n

Paus Franciscus vertelde de pelgrims die woensdag aanwezig waren bij zijn algemene audi\u00ebntie op het Sint-Pietersplein dat de Heilige Maagd Maria zich niet op zichzelf richt, maar op haar zoon, Jezus.<\/p>\n

\u201cMaria is altijd de moeder die ons naar Jezus brengt,\u201d zei de Heilige Vader. \u201cMaria wijst niet alleen naar zichzelf. Zij wijst naar Jezus.\u201d<\/p>\n

Voortbouwend op zijn catechese over de relatie tussen de Heilige Geest en de Kerk als de bruid van Jezus, nodigde paus Franciscus zijn toehoorders uit om na te denken over de aanwezigheid en de bijzondere rol van de Moeder Gods onder de apostelen van Jezus.<\/p>\n

\u201cDe leerlingen waren verzameld rond Maria, de moeder van Jezus,\u201d zei de paus, reflecterend op het gedeelte uit de Handelingen van de Apostelen dat werd voorgelezen aan honderden pelgrims die op het Sint-Pietersplein waren samengekomen. <\/p>\n

\u201cHaar aanwezigheid is anders en uniek onder hen allen,\u201d vervolgde hij. \u201cTussen haar en de Heilige Geest bestaat een unieke en eeuwig onverwoestbare band, namelijk de persoon van Christus zelf, die ontvangen is van de Heilige Geest en geboren uit de Maagd Maria.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tijdens zijn algemene audi\u00ebntie op 13 november zei paus Franciscus dat de steun van Maria voor christelijke gemeenschappen niet beperkt is tot het verleden, maar \u201cin elk tijdperk van onze geschiedenis\u201d is blijven voortbestaan.<\/p>\n

\u201cDe Moeder Gods is een instrument van de Heilige Geest in zijn heiligingswerk,\u201d zei hij. \u201cMaria is degene die \u2018ja\u2019 zei tegen God en die ons met haar voorbeeld en door haar voorspraak aanspoort om ook \u2018ja\u2019 tegen Hem te zeggen.\u201d<\/p>\n

Als \u201cde eerste leerling en gestalte van de Kerk\u201d hoopt de Heilige Vader dat christenen vandaag de dag Maria zullen toelaten om \u201cJezus te zien\u201d, \u201cons hart voor Hem te openen\u201d en \u201chaastig op te staan\u201d om anderen in nood te helpen.  <\/p>\n

Bij het beschrijven van Maria herhaalde de paus de woorden van de patroonheilige van zijn pontificaat, de heilige Franciscus van Assisi: \u201cDochter en dienstmaagd van de hemelse Vader, de almachtige Koning, Moeder van onze allerhoogste Heer Jezus Christus, en bruid van de Heilige Geest.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDe unieke relatie tussen Maria en de Drie-eenheid kon niet in eenvoudigere woorden worden uitgedrukt,\u201d zei hij.<\/p>\n

\u2018Wij bidden voor vrede\u2019<\/h2>\n

Voordat hij zijn woensdagaudi\u00ebntie afsloot en zijn vaderlijke zegen gaf aan de pelgrims, besloot de Heilige Vader zijn algemene audi\u00ebntie met hernieuwde smeekbeden voor vrede en gebed.<\/p>\n

\u201cLaten we Oekra\u00efne niet vergeten, laten we Palestina, Isra\u00ebl, Myanmar en zoveel landen in oorlog niet vergeten,\u201d drong hij aan. \u201cLaten we de groep Palestijnen die doodgeschoten zijn niet vergeten. Onschuldige mensen.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cWij bidden voor vrede. Er is zoveel behoefte aan vrede. Mijn zegen voor [jullie] allen,\u201d zei hij.<\/p>\n
