Youth Views: Reflecting on Words by Pope Francis

Reflect on this quote by Pope Francis: “All life has inestimable value even the weakest and most vulnerable, the sick, the old, the unborn and the poor, are masterpieces of God’s creation, made in his own image, destined to live forever and deserving of the utmost reverence and respect.”

Every living thing on this planet is deserving of respect. It doesn’t matter who you are or where you came from – you deserve respect and love.

One should not judge another or think poorly of one another when they are less fortunate.  Pope Francis is asking for us to remember that God is in everyone and everything and we should treat them as such.

My science research project is revolved around finding a new way to encourage socialization among children with autism. Children diagnosed with autism are just as capable at performing tasks as typically developing children. Autism awareness is extremely important because as Pope Francis stated, everyone has been made in God’s creation and deserves the utmost reverence and respect.

This quote shows that life is precious in all stages. It’s very important to understand that we all have the right to life through God.

In all of God’s creations, there is beauty and everyone deserves respect because no one is perfect and everyone deserves to be forgiven.
