We will read about St Philip's second healing miracle for Giovan Battista Modio. Before he cured him, he urged him to patience. Patience helps us to endure the sadnesses of this life, especially physical and spiritual suffering. Modio became one of the best preachers at the Little Oratory. He could combine instruction with humour before huge crowds. May our patience in suffering help win souls for God and win for the Church great preachers.
