Let us say to ourselves with the full conviction of telling the truth, "My soul, begin today to do the good works which to this day you have not done. " Let us be moved by the presence of God. Let us often say to ourselves, "God sees me, and as He looks at me He also judges me. " Let us act in such a way that He sees only good in us. (Padre Pio; Letters IV, p. 966)
