In one of the last catechesis of the Jubilee Year, Pope Leo spoke on finding hope and rest in God alone, especially amid the fast-paced societies of today with the pressures and expectations of success and efficiency.

SUMMARY OF THE WEEKLY PUBLIC CATECHESIS:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dear brothers and sisters,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In our catechesis on the Jubilee theme of \u201cJesus Christ our Hope,\u201d today we reflect on the Resurrection as the firm foundation of our hope in our daily lives. In our fast-paced society, we can often feel overwhelmed by pressures and expectations for greater efficiency and optimal results. When we feel this way, let us remember the words that we just heard from the Gospel of Saint Matthew: \u201cFor where your treasure is, there your heart will be also\u201d (Mt 6:21). Our heart\u2019s treasure is not the goods of this world, neither prosperity, nor success, nor admirable achievements! Indeed, Saint Augustine described our hearts as restless. That restlessness is not arbitrary and disordered; it is oriented towards heaven, whose doors are open to us thanks to the incarnation, passion, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. If we enter into the dynamism of his love and grace, he will be victorious in us \u2014 not just at the hour of our death, but also today, right now, and every day hereafter.
I extend a warm welcome this morning to all the English-speaking pilgrims and visitors taking
part in today\u2019s Audience, especially those coming from Nigeria, Indonesia and the United States of America. I pray that each of you, and your families, may experience a blessed Advent in preparation for the coming of the new born Jesus, Son of God and Savior of the world. God bless you all!
