Saturday, January 27 : Saint Pio of Pietralcina “Padre Pio”

Always be careful that your occupations be not transformed into worries and become a spiritual concern. Although you are submerged in the waves, taken in storms of many difficulties, gaze upwards and always tell our Lord: O God, for you I sail and travel; Be my guide and my pilot! Meanwhile, concern yourselves to address the business one issue after the other, as best you can; And faithfully apply your mind, but gently and sweetly. If God grants you success, bless it; If he does not wish to grant it to you, bless that also. You just have to try to succeed with a good heart. Neither the Lord nor reason demand results from you, but the necessary application, commitment and diligence. Many things depend on us, but not success. Live in peace and rest on the divine Heart, without any fear, because there we are away from storms, and even the justice of God cannot reach so far. Strive to properly master the anxieties of your heart. Confidence and calm in the great work of your sanctification and that of others. To Jesus the rest.
