God is greater than our sins, and also greater than our resistance, Pope Francis assured in the general audience of November 3.
The Holy Father continued with his reflection on Paul's Letter to the Galatians, taking up the Apostle's exhortation to "walk according to the Holy Spirit" (cf. 5:16, 25).
The Pope said that believing in Jesus is following him, as the disciples did, and at the same time, avoiding walking in the opposite direction, which is seeking one's own interests.
Francis described the journey of life as "stupendous" even though "difficult."

"This image can be helpful to understand the merit of the Apostle’s words 'to walk according to the Spirit' and 'allow ourselves to be guided' by Him," the Pope said.
Paul's words indicate action and movement, "a dynamism that prevents us from halting at the first difficulties."
