Padre Pio wants to tell you this today March 9th. Thought and prayer

I know you suffer a lot, but aren't these the jewels of the Bridegroom?

Prayer

O Saint Pius, for the ardent love you have nourished for Jesus, for the tireless struggle that has seen you victor over evil, for the contempt for the things of the world, for having preferred poverty to riches, humiliation to glory, pain to pleasure, allow us to progress on the path of Grace for the sole purpose of pleasing God. Help us to love others as you have loved even those who have slandered and persecuted you. Help us to live humble, selfless, chaste, hardworking and to observe our good Christian duties. Amen.

Our Father ... Ave Maria ... Glory to the Father ...
