Let me recognize You as Your disciples did at the breaking of the bread,
so that the Eucharistic Communion be the Light which disperses the darkness,
the force which sustains me, the unique joy of my heart.
-- St. Pio of Pietrelcina
Truly one of the most fascinating saints. During our conversion I couldn't get enough info on Padre Pio's life. Each year on his day I'm taken back to those feelings of wonder.
And apparently he's the partron of chile peppers. Good to know.
