Papal Notes - Francis vs. the Psalmist

Pope Francis says...
"The Blessed Virgin Mary is a“refuge in the most difficult
moments.”

Pope Francis gave this powerful reminder on August 22, 2018, on the Feast Day of the Queenship of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Toward the end of the General Audience held in the Vatican’s Paul VI Hall today, the Holy Father, as usual, offered some special words to young people, the
elderly, the sick and newlyweds.
May the Mother of God be your refuge in the most difficult moments and may she teach you to love her Son with the tenderness and exclusivity with which she loved Him,” he prayed."
Zenit
But the Psalmist says....
God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble.
Psalm 46:1
