You see that Book of the Gospel placed on the coffin of Pope Francis, it isn’t just a symbol, it is a message.
That book is the Book of the Gospels, the Word of Life that guided him every day. It represents how he lived: carrying the Gospel close to his heart, preaching it with his words, and even more with his life.
As it rests on his coffin, it is as if the Church is saying: “Here lies a man who lived and breathed the Good News. Now the Word he loved carries him home.”
It is not just a tribute; it is a final mission, the Gospel standing watch, testifying that he fought the good fight, kept the faith, and now receives the crown of eternal life.
A silent, powerful reminder for us all: Live the Gospel so deeply that when you die, it speaks louder than any eulogy ever could.
