[[Pope Benedict XVI]] discussed the life and teaching of Julian at a [[Audience (meeting)|General Audience]] on 1 December 2010, stating: "Julian of Norwich understood the central message for spiritual life: God is love and it is only if one opens oneself to this love, totally and with total trust, and lets it become one's sole guide in life, that all things are transfigured, true peace and true joy found and one is able to radiate it." He concluded: "'And all will be well,' 'all manner of things shall be well': this is the final message that Julian of Norwich transmits to us and that I am also proposing to you today."<ref name="Benedict" /> [[Pope Francis]] also mentions her in his [[encyclical letter]] ''[[Dilexit nos]]'' as one of a number of "holy women" who have "spoken of resting in the [[Sacred Heart|heart of the Lord]] as the source of life and interior peace".<ref>Pope Francis, [https://www.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/encyclicals/documents/20241024-enciclica-dilexit-nos.pdf Dilexit nos], paragraph 110, published on 24 October 2024, accessed on 31 January 2025</ref>
