259. О любви пристрастной и любви чистой

Machine translation from the original · Show original
M. St. O. n. G.I.H.B.n. p.n. Sister in the Lord M. Magdalene! I wish you God's mercy and spiritual salvation. Happy Angel Day, God send you peace of mind. There is no need to pay attention to disturbing thoughts, but rather try to say a prayer. Embarrassment and consolation inseparably follow, and we must endure this. If you listened to prayers after confession, then it’s not a problem. Don’t be embarrassed by the fact that your confessor found your advice wrong, consider them as such. And if they ask for advice, then do not refuse them. One must repent of mistakes and humble oneself. Probably, and about. The abbot is also capable of making mistakes; no one can live without this. May the Lord forgive you in everything and give you peace of mind. There is a difference between partial love and pure love. The first is with a passionate feeling in the heart, with the movement of blood, with obscene thoughts, and the second is quiet and peaceful. Where there is peace, there is God, and where there is an enemy, there is confusion. Calling upon you peace and God’s blessing, I remain with the desire for salvation. You might be interested in:
