September 23 - St. Padre Pio's Feast Day
"You must be strong and cheerful in spirit, for the Lord is in the depths of your heart: he will fight along with you and for you. Who, then will win the battle? Who is stronger than he is? Who will hold out against the Kings of the heavens? What is the creature, what is hell itself in front of the Lord?"
(from the meditation for September 23)
