He who does not meditate acts as one who never looks into the mirror and so does not bother to put himself in order, since he can be dirty without knowing it. The person who meditates and turns his thoughts to God who is the mirror of the soul, seeks to know his defects and tries to correct them, moderates himself in his impulses and puts his conscience in order.
Pio of PietrelcinaPray, hope and don't worry. Anxiety doesn't help at all. Our Merciful Lord will listen to your prayer.
Pio of PietrelcinaYou must concentrate on pleasing God alone, and if He is pleased, you must be pleased.
Pio of PietrelcinaDo not let your heart become troubled by the sad spectacle of human injustice. Even this has its value in the face of all else. And it is from this that one day you will see the justice of God rising with unfailing triumph.
Pio of PietrelcinaYour temptations are from the devil and from Hell; but your sufferings and afflictions are from God and Heaven.
