As I sit and have my cup of coffee with Jesus, I was thinking of one of my favorite quotes from Saint Padre Pio, “Don’t worry to the point of losing your INNER peace. Pray with perseverance, with faith, with calmness and serenity.”
Sometimes I think we forget the power of prayer. We forget that we have a gift that can lift us and our world to a better place. We may not get the answer to our prayers immediately, but God always answers our prayers. “Because God delays does not mean God denies.” So, pray with perseverance, with a very strong faith, and with calmness and serenity that you are being heard, that all your prayers will be answered.
Today, I am going to pray for our world, for our nation, for our community and for all of you. No one can keep us from Praying!
Have a blessed day!

Buon Giorno Monsignor
The past 2 days I have been fervently praying, I’ll need to remember Saint Padre Pio’s quote , “Don’t worry to the point of losing your INNER peace. Pray with perseverance, with faith, with calmness and serenity.” I must add one more item, to my prayer, PEACE. In my case, peace is definitely needed, in my opinion calmness will follow.
Thank you Monsignor for sending this desperately needed message. I’m asking for your prayers, my ex husband is unwilling to let me speak with our daughter. She is grounded at his house, he took away all her electronics. He will get into these bizarre behaviors and becomes irrational. Our horrific custody and 4 year divorce is over, we were granted 50/50 custody, which is exactly what I requested. I’m asking him to let me speak with our daughter; he’s telling me no. He has done this in the past and the court ORDERED him 2 times, that when I ask to speak to her he must comply. In addition, if she wants to contact me, he must comply. He has now stopped responding to my calls nor texts. He was also court ordered to respond to any all messages regarding our daughter as soon as possible. He’s completely ignored me. He in text wrote, I have to contact his lawyer; our custody case is over. Please send a prayer to our omnipresent omnipotent Father on my behalf.
Please pray for me, so I can remain calm, to pray with perseverance, faithfulness and serenity.
