May the Child Jesus be the star that guides you through the desert of your present life.
Pio of Pietrelcina
You must not be discouraged or let yourself become dejected if your actions have not succeeded as perfectly as you intended. What do you expect? We are made of clay and not every soil yields the fruits expected by the one who tills it. But let us always humble ourselves and acknowledge that we are nothing if we lack the Divine assistance.
Pio of Pietrelcina
I want to be only a poor friar who prays - if God sees blemishes even in the angels, can you imagine what He sees in me!
Pio of Pietrelcina
Don't consider me too demanding if I ask you once again to set great store by holy books and read them as much as you can. This spiritual reading is as necessary to you as the air you breathe.
Pio of Pietrelcina
