Pope Francis’ top 10 secrets for living a holier life                                                     Posted on October 31, 2014 by Carol Glatz (usccb.org; catholicnews.com)
VATICAN CITY 


While the saints are meant to be role models for today’s men and women, the pope likes to remind people that holiness is not something completely out of reach — it’s not some “rare privilege for the few,” but an inheritance everyone receives at baptism.

The pope has said, “Saints aren’t superheroes nor were they born perfect. They are like us, each one of us,” but when they experienced the life-changing encounter with God, they never left his side.

Pope Francis' top 10 secrets to living a holy life:

1.   Follow God with your whole heart, without compromise, without hypocrisy.
2.   Get your sense of security from God's love, not things.

3.   Always serve others.
4.   Learn to suffer with those who suffer, rejoice with those who rejoice.
5.   Bear suffering and adversity without hatred.
6.   Respond to evil with goodness and mercy.
7.   Reconcile people, build peace.
8.   Have a joyous, humble heart; don't judge.
9.   PRAY
10. Follow the path of the beatitudes (Mt 5:3-12)




The Saints are on the sidelines telling us, "Be not afraid." Pope Francis
