A fine “interpreter" of his time, who in a new way had"a thirst for God," and was an"extraordinary director of souls," capable of helping people seek the Lord in their hearts and find Him in charity.’, written on the occasion of the fourth centenary of the death of the Doctor of the Church, Patron of journalists and communicators, and"exiled" Bishop of Geneva.
It is, therefore, not surprising, notes Pope Francis, that St. John Paul II called him a"Doctor of Divine Love," not only for having written “a weighty Treatise on that subject, but first and foremost because he was an outstanding witness to that love”. After asking himself about"the legacy of Saint Francis de Sales for our time”, the Pope explains that he found his “flexibility and his far-sighted vision” enlightening.
This idea, underpinning his entire life “centered on God”, are explained with simplicity and precision in the Treatise and specifically with these words: “At the very thought of God, one immediately feels a certain delightful emotion of the heart, which testifies that God is God of the human heart.”
