Today the prevalent efficiency-based mentality often tends to marginalize people, considering them a burden and a problem for society. Those who have a sense of human dignity know instead that they must be respected and supported while they face the difficulties and suffering associated with the condition of their health. … As well as the indispensable clinical treatment, it is necessary to offer the sick practical gestures of love, closeness and Christian solidarity in response to their need for understanding, comfort and constant encouragement.

– Pope Benedict XVI, Address at Sacro Cuore Hospice, December 13, 2009

For all who work to advance respect for human life: that they remain humble instruments in God’s hands and always bear witness to the Lord’s love and mercy; we pray to the Lord. Amen.

 

Hoy la mentalidad eficientista predominante tiende con frecuencia a marginar a estas personas, considerándolas un peso y un problema para la sociedad. Quien tiene el sentido de la dignidad humana sabe, en cambio, que hay que respetarlas y apoyarlas cuando afrontan las dificultades y el sufrimiento vinculado a sus condiciones de salud … Con todo, además de los cuidados clínicos indispensables, es necesario ofrecer a los enfermos gestos concretos de amor, de cercanía y de solidaridad cristiana para salir al encuentro de su necesidad de comprensión, de consuelo y de aliento constante.

– Benedicto XVI, Discurso en el Hospicio Sagrado Corazón, Roma, 13 de diciembre de 2009

Por todos los que promueven el respeto a la vida humana:para que siempre sean instrumentos humildes en manos de Diosy siempre den testimonio del amor y la misericordia del Señor; roguemos al Señor. Amen.
