From a very young age, Padre Pio spoke of interactions he had with angels, as well as saints and demons. In fact, when he was a child, he often spoke of his guardian angel as his friend.
Padre Pio was a man who admired simplicity. He wholly lived the Franciscan spirit of poverty with detachment from self, possessions, and comforts.
We have all had moments in our lives when we feel as if God doesn’t see or hear us. Padre Pio was certainly no different.
Padre Pio underwent a lot of scrutiny during his life. But while he admitted despairing, he offered up the suffering because he knew it was God’s will.
God is the conductor of our orchestra and the many saints and holy people we encounter along the way serve as our instructors.
We cannot preach in the same way as Padre Pio did. But we can spread that same message through our own lives. In that sense, we are all preachers.
Toward the end of his life and after his death, Padre Pio has become a popular saint among Catholics.
