Remember the painting that Francis introduced to the church, Our Lady, Untier of Knots? She is not resolving the problem; the way you untie knots is to loosen them. And that’s what Pope Francis was doing. He was untying knots. He was dispelling the fears that we have, especially of people who are different than us.

God doesn't love you as an abstraction. The good shepherd is personal, because the shepherd calls his own sheep by name. God knows your name. God knows your story, and God knows your agonies. God knows what brought you here this morning; and you are the person God loves.

"Who touched my clothes?" Jesus asks when surrounded by a crowd of bystanders. And the disciples are disrespectfully bewildered: "You see the crowd pressing in on you; how can you say, 'Who touched me?"' But no touch is anonymous to Jesus; he can easily make out the touch of yearning and trust of the woman suffering from hemorrhages.

As we gaze upon the cross, there is a still point at the center where all is in harmony, all in balance. It is here at this point where the tensions of the crossings are equal and cannot pull. (The Center by Susan Palo Cherwien, Crossings: Meditations for Worship )
