Vatican City, Jan 28, 2016 / 12:32 pm (EWTN News/CNA).- While the experience of illness can certainly test our faith, for Pope Francis it is an opportunity to entrust ourselves to the tenderness and mercy of Christ, which Mary, his mother, shows us how to do.

The often asked or rather the often snarky remark by non believers is if there is a God - why does He allow disease.
Often ignoring we chose to be separated and sin became a part of us which led to disease.

But it's good for those who are suffering...to seek the aid of our Lady.
As frightened as they are.
