Pope of Rome held the Holly Mass in Tbiilisi at the Mikheil Meskhi stadium.

“If we want the Lord to establish in us, we must open the door and let him come in. The door of consolation must always be open, because Jesus will enter through it. These doors are: the Gospel, which we read every day, prayer in silence and worship, confession, Eucharist. The Lord comes to us through these doors. If the door of the heart is locked, the Lord"s light cannot penetrate and we remain in darkness. As a result, we fall in pessimism, put up with failure and do not believe in changes. At the end, we drown in our melancholy, anxiety. But, if we open the door of consolation, we will see the light of the Lord", - said the Pope.

According to him, church is a house of consolation.

“A lot of people are suffering from harassment, injustice, anxiety. Their hearts are in need of ointment and God’s consolation, which cannot fully save us from distress, but it fills with the power of love. Providing divine comfort to people is the most significant mission of the church”, said the Pope.

The Pope arrived in Georgia yesterday for a 2-day visit. Tomorrow the Pope will leave Georgia for Azerbaijan.
