IN UNION WITH DIVINE LOVE Day 67

Message from Padre Pio
You must hate your faults, but with a quiet hate, not troublesome and restless.

Reflection
Do I admit my faults or do I still make or contrive good excuses for them?

Scriptural Reading
Luke 18:13
But the tax collector stood off at a distance and would not even raise his eyes to heaven but beat his breast and prayed, "O God, be merciful to me a sinner!"

Prayer
There can be no good cause for offending you, my Lord, for true love can never justify even the smallest acts of mischief or disobedience. I accuse myself, dearest Lord, do with me as you will. Amen.
