409. В монастыре надо слушаться, а не возражать и противиться начальству

M. St. O. n. G.I.H.B.n. p.n. Sister in the Lord Pelagia! Why are you going against Mother Superior? After all, she is the boss, and you are getting into an argument with her. She wanted to appoint a nun to you, but you refused - this is pride against the abbess. Upon receipt of this letter, ask for forgiveness from Mother Superior and say: “Mother! Whoever you want in my cell, put that one.” Know that you came to the monastery to obey, and not to object or resist the authorities. Humble yourself and correct yourself. Asking for you peace and God's blessing, I remain with good will towards you. You might be interested in:
