Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, With the Lord in the Silence

In this video we share Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, with the Lord in the Silence.

Benedict the sixteenth became the first pope in 600 years to resign when he renounced the papacy in 2013. He said that he didn’t have the strength of body and mind to guide the Catholic Church.

During the entire papacy of Pope Francis, Benedict the sixteenth has lived in a converted monastery in the Vatican gardens, occasionally greeting visitors and writing, but by and large keeping to his vow to live “hidden to the world.”

Benedict XVI has serious " difficulties in expressing himself ".

This was reported a year ago by the new Maltese cardinal, Mario Grech, speaking of his visit to Ratzinger at the end of the Consistory.

Ratzinger, at the beginning of his meeting with Pope Francis and the new cardinals, said: "The Lord took my voice from me to make me appreciate the silence; according to what Cardinal Grech told the Vatican News, "but he tried to encourage us to go forward in the adventure with the Lord.

It was a moment of joy to meet Pope Benedict; added the new Maltese cardinal, Mario Grech, in the interview with Vatican News - who believed in me and created me a bishop in 2006.

Seeing this Pastor, this man , with the years that weigh on him, but at the same time lucid and smiling and with the desire to communicate the experience he is having of the Spirit; he encouraged us a lot.

Already last August the news had spread of a deterioration in the state of health of the Pope Emeritus, and there was talk of a serious facial infection, according to his own biographer, the writer Peter Seewald.

Benedict the sixteenth was struck by a facial infection that worsened after the death of his brother Georg, resulting in severe and disabling pain.

Benedict the sixteenth, 94 years old, had suffered from erysipelas of the face, an infectious skin disease that would get worse when he returned from Regensburg last June.

His intellectual abilities and his memory are not affected, but his voice is barely audible.

He is such a virtuous man who has a brilliant theological mind which is committed to Truth, no matter the pressure upon him. His integrity will never allow him to surrender to anything but Truth Himself.
Godbless him & take him to Himself.

I have a CD of him praying the Psalter in our native German; I often pray it with him, Thank you for the up-date; Pope Benedict is inspiring me to accept the suffering that invariably comes with old age and offer it up (as I am sure, he does so gracefully).
