176. Без послушания, смирения и отречения своей воли нельзя спастись. От самочиния и неумеренных подвигов происходят смущение и вред

M. St. O. n. G.I.H.B.n. p.n. I wish you God's mercy and spiritual salvation. May the Lord help you in your labors. If sisters walk around and ask something, then they should not refuse proper and useful advice. But instill in them more so that they have obedience, humility and renunciation of their will. And without these virtues there is no way to be saved. I don’t advise you to pray a lot or fast more than others, but to behave like everyone else. From self-indulgence and from immoderate exploits only embarrassment and harm come, and not benefit. Don’t call to your place for advice and guidance, and if someone asks, don’t refuse. Calling upon you peace and God's blessing, I remain with the desire for salvation You might be interested in:
