“O maid-servant of God!…”
O maid-servant of God!
Thy letter hath arrived. It brought joy to all hearts, for it carried the proof of thy sincere work. Today, directing mankind in the right path is the magnet which will attract to us the help of God. All those who consecrate themselves to this work are accompanied by divine protection. Thus, rely upon God and address thy supplications to the Most High. Then, after perfect renunciation, care for the souls of the undirected and negligent. I pray that thou mayest be aided and strengthened.
Thou has demanded the permission to go to Algeria in order to give thyself to the direction of men; may God aid and help you in this work.
