The world was startled in 2007 by revelations that Mother Teresa of
Calcutta's spiritual life was full of serious doubts and personal
suffering for nearly 50 years. The other great saint of the last
half century - Padre Pio - offers similar revelations of his own in
this enlightening collection of short excerpts from his letters.
Many books have been written on the life and works of Padre Pio,
but "Words of Light "is not a book about what others think or say
about him. Here, he speaks for himself. If you are interested in
the complexities and challenges of contemporary faith, you will
benefit from these short teachings, counsels, and recollections
culled from some of Padre Pio's most personal writings.
"In these letters I quickly discovered the same states of soul that
were described by the great mystics. Padre Pio's own 'dark night'
was in no way inferior to that described by John of the Cross, and
equally the 'living flame' of his love for God dazzles the reader
and allows them to catch a glimpse of another world."
- Fr. Raniero Cantalamessa, from the Introduction
