Let us continually oriented thinking into the sky, our true homeland, the land is not more than the image, preserving the serenity and calm in all events, whether happy or sad, as befits a Christian, and a soul formed with special care in the school of suffering.In all this I always encourage the reasons given faith and encouragement of Christian hope, and, behaving well, the heavenly Father will sweeten the bitterness of the test with the balm of his goodness and mercy. And it is this goodness and mercy of the heavenly Father to whom the pious and beneficent angel faith invites us and urges us to use a persistent and humble prayer, with the firm hope of being heard, because we trust in the promise that we makes the Divine Master: "Ask and you shall receive, seek and find, knock and it shall be opened ... For whatever you ask the Father in my name it shall be given."Yes, pray and pray always in the serenity of our faith, in the tranquility of the soul because warm and fervent prayer penetrates heaven and encloses in itself a divine guarantee.
(June 24, 1915, to Raffaelina Cerase - Ep. II, p. 452).
