📝 VIDEO DESCRIPTION Anger, Revenge, Forgiveness, as Seen by Padre Pio. Holding a grudge may feel justified, but it wounds the soul more than anyone else. Padre Pio’s approach to anger and forgiveness reveals the radical love called for by the Gospel, showing that letting go of resentment is both difficult and essential for true spiritual freedom. A woman once confessed that she harboured hatred toward her ex-fiancé’s mother, expecting consolation, only to encounter Padre Pio’s firm guidance. Through grace, her heart changed, and she discovered that forgiveness begins before words are spoken. Padre Pio emphasized that even instinctive dislike, coldness, or aversion stands in opposition to Christian love. True forgiveness is not delayed—it is a disposition of the heart, a readiness to love even in the moment of being wronged.
