Pope says God loves each man personally

December 17, 2013 - Pope Francis on Tuesday reminded Christians that God loves each man personally, calling him by name. “The love of God is not generic. God looks with love upon every man and woman, calling them by name,” the Pope said in a tweet on his Twitter account @pontifex. The Pope’s inspiration seemed to reflect his homily at Mass on his 77^th birthday, Tuesday, where he reminded those present that God has a first name but has no surname. This missing surname, he pointed out, is the name of each one of us, whom he loves and accompanies personally.
