Deeper union with God (Pope Francis)


    A positive experience of family communion is a true path to daily sanctification and mystical growth, a means for deeper union with God.

    Those who have deep spiritual aspirations should not feel that the family distracts from their growth in the life of the Spirit, but rather see it as a path which the Lord is using to lead them to the heights of mystical union.


--Pope Francis, Amoris laetitia, chapter 9
