Devotion to the Saints: the thought of Padre Pio today 30 July
30. I want nothing more than to die or love God: or death, or love; for life without this love is worse than death: for me it would be more unsustainable than it is at present.
31. I must not then pass the first month of the year without bringing to your soul, my dear daughter, the greeting of mine and always assuring you of the affection that my heart has for yours, to which I never cease desire all sorts of blessings and spiritual happiness. But, my good daughter, I strongly recommend this poor heart to you: take care to make it grateful to our sweetest Savior day by day, and make sure that this year is more fertile than last year in good works, since as the years pass and eternity approaches, we must double our courage and raise our spirit to God, serving him with greater diligence in all that our Christian vocation and profession oblige us.
1. Prayer is the outpouring of our heart into that of God ... When it is done well, it moves the divine Heart and invites it more and more to grant us. We try to pour out our whole soul when we start to pray to God. He remains wrapped in our prayers to be able to come to our aid.
2. I want to be only a poor friar who prays!
3. Pray and hope; do not panic. Agitation is of no use. God is merciful and will listen to your prayer.
4. Prayer is the best weapon we have; it is a key that opens the heart of God. You must speak to Jesus also with the heart, as well as with the lip; indeed, in certain contingents, you must speak to him only from the heart.
