Padre Pio Lenten Reflection: Third Saturday

"Peace can be a rather elusive state for us. Perhaps it's because it seems too big and overwhelming of a challenge and so we give up the fight. Padre Pio, however, had a remedy for that feeling of discouragement: Always turn to God. Only then will we even have a chance of finding any peace. As he went on to say in the letter to Father Agostino, peace 'is the holy joy of a heart in which God reigns.'"

Franciscan Media is offering a special Lenten series of meditations, "Lent with Padre Pio." The mediation for the Third Saturday is as follows:
