Padre Pio wants to give you these tips for the whole month of October

1. When you recite the Rosary after the Glory you say: «Saint Joseph, pray for us!».

2. Walk with simplicity in the way of the Lord and do not torment your spirit. You must hate your faults but with a quiet hatred and not already annoying and restless; it is necessary to have patience with them and take advantage of them by means of a holy lowering. In the absence of such patience, my good daughters, your imperfections, instead of diminishing, grow more and more, since there is nothing that nourishes both our shortcomings as much as the restlessness and the concern to want to remove them.

3. Beware of anxieties and anxieties, because there is nothing that most hinders walking in perfection. Place, my daughter, gently your heart in the wounds of our Lord, but not by force of arms. Have great confidence in his mercy and goodness, that he will never abandon you, but do not let him embrace his holy cross for this.

4. Do not worry when you cannot meditate, cannot communicate and cannot attend to all devout practices. In this meantime, try to make up for it differently by keeping yourself united with our Lord with a loving will, with prayer prayers, with spiritual communion.

5. Dispel perplexities and anxieties once and for all and enjoy the sweetest pains of the Beloved in peace.

6. In the Rosary, Our Lady prays with us.

7. Love the Madonna. Recite the Rosary. Recite it well.

8. I really feel my heart crashing in feeling your sufferings, and I don't know what I would do to see you relieved. But why are you so upset? why do you crave? And away, my daughter, I have never seen you give so many jewels to Jesus as now. Never have I seen you so dear to Jesus as now. So what are you afraid of and trembling about? Your fear and trembling is similar to that of a child who is in his mother's arms. So yours is foolish and useless fear.

9. In particular, I have nothing to try again in you, apart from this somewhat bitter agitation in you, which does not make you taste all the sweetness of the cross. Make amends for this and continue to do as you have done up to now.

10. Then please do not worry about what I am going and I will be suffering, because suffering, however great it is, faced with the good that awaits us, is delightful for the soul.

11. As for your spirit, keep calm and entrust your whole self to Jesus more and more. Strive to conform yourself always and in all to the divine will, both in favorable and adverse things, and do not be solicitous for tomorrow.

12. Do not fear on your spirit: they are jokes, predilections and tests of the celestial Spouse, who wants to assimilate you to him. Jesus looks at the dispositions and the good wishes of your soul, which are excellent, and he accepts and rewards, and not your impossibility and incapacity. So don't worry.

13. Do not tire yourself around things that generate solicitude, disturbances and worries. Only one thing is necessary: ​​lift the spirit and love God.

14. You worry, my good daughter, to seek the highest Good. But, in truth, it is within you and it keeps you stretched out on the naked cross, breathing strength to sustain unsustainable martyrdom and love to love bitterly Love. So the fear of seeing him lost and disgusted without realizing it is as vain as he is close and close to you. The anxiety of the future is equally vain, since the present state is a crucifixion of love.

15. Poor unfortunate those souls who throw themselves into the whirlwind of worldly concerns; the more they love the world, the more their passions multiply, the more their desires ignite, the more incapable they find themselves in their plans; and here are the anxieties, the impatiences, the terrible shocks that break their hearts, which do not palpate with charity and holy love.
Let us pray for these wretched, miserable souls that Jesus will forgive and draw them with his infinite mercy to himself.

16. You don't have to act violently, if you don't want to take the risk of making money. It is necessary to put on great Christian prudence.

17. Remember, O children, that I am an enemy of unnecessary desires, no less than that of dangerous and evil desires, for although what is desired is good, nevertheless desire is always defective in regard to us, especially when it is mixed with overwhelming concern, since God does not demand this good, but another in which he wants us to practice.

18. As for the spiritual trials, to which the paternal goodness of the heavenly Father is subjecting you, I beg you to be resigned and possibly quiet to the assurances of those who hold the place of God, in which he loves you and desires you every good and in which name speaks to you.
You suffer, it is true, but resigned; suffer, but do not fear, because God is with you and you do not offend him, but love him; you suffer, but also believe that Jesus himself suffers in you and for you and with you. Jesus did not abandon you when you ran away from him, much less will abandon you now, and later on, that you want to love him.
God can reject everything in a creature, because everything tastes of corruption, but he can never reject in it the sincere desire to want to love him. So if you don't want to convince yourself and be sure of heavenly pity for other reasons, you must at least make sure of that and be calm and happy.

19. Nor should you confuse yourself with knowing whether you allowed or not. Your study and vigilance are directed towards the rectitude of intention that you must keep in operating and always fighting the evil arts of the bad spirit valiantly and generously.

20. Always be cheerfully at peace with your conscience, reflecting that you are at the service of an infinitely good Father, who by tenderness alone descends to his creature, to elevate it and transform it into him its creator.
And flee the sadness, because it enters the hearts that are attached to the things of the world.

21. We must not be discouraged, because if there is a continuous effort to improve in the soul, in the end the Lord rewards her by making all the virtues bloom in her suddenly as in a flower garden.

22. The Rosary and the Eucharist are two wonderful gifts.

23. Savio praises the strong woman: "His fingers, he says, handle the spindle" (Prv 31,19).
I will gladly tell you something above these words. Your knees are the accumulation of your desires; spin, therefore, every day a little, pull your designs wire by wire until the execution and you will infallibly come to the head; but warn not to hurry, because you would twist the thread with knots and cheat your spindle. Walk, therefore, always and, although you will go slowly forward, you will make a great journey.

24. Anxiety is one of the greatest traitors that true virtue and firm devotion can ever have; it pretends to warm up to the good to operate, but it does not do so, only to cool down, and makes us run only to make us stumble; and for this reason one must beware of it on every occasion, particularly in prayer; and in order to do it better, it will be good to remember that the graces and tastes of prayer are not waters of the earth but of the sky, and that therefore all our efforts are not enough to make them fall, although it is necessary to arrange oneself with great diligence yes, always humble and calm: you must keep your heart open to the sky, and wait for the heavenly dew beyond.

25. We keep what the divine Master says well carved in our mind: in our patience we will possess our soul.

26. Do not lose courage if you have to work hard and collect little (...).
If you thought how much a single soul costs Jesus, you would not complain.

27. The spirit of God is a spirit of peace, and even in the most serious shortcomings it makes us feel a peaceful, humble, confident pain, and this depends precisely on his mercy.
The spirit of the devil, on the other hand, excites, exasperates and makes us feel, in the same pain, almost anger against ourselves, while instead we must use the first charity precisely towards ourselves.
So if some thoughts agitate you, think that this agitation never comes from God, who gives you tranquility, being a spirit of peace, but from the devil.

28. The struggle that precedes the good work that is intended to be done is like the antiphon that precedes the solemn psalm to be sung.

29. The momentum of being in eternal peace is good, it is holy; but we must moderate it with the complete resignation to the divine wills: it is better to do the divine will on earth than to enjoy paradise. "To suffer and not to die" was the motto of Saint Teresa. Purgatory is sweet when you are sorry for God's sake.

30. Patience is more perfect as it is less mixed with concern and disturbance. If the good Lord wants to prolong the hour of testing, do not want to complain and investigate why, but always keep in mind this that the children of Israel traveled forty years in the desert before setting foot in the promised land.

31. Love the Madonna. Recite the Rosary. May the blessed Mother of God reign supreme over your hearts.
