She has been thinking of him before God and praying for him. He is, as he says, truly a happy man, for he renews his sacrifice daily, generously. She tells him not to be so sad and anxious, thinking so much of doing penance; rather, he should learn to love God in little things. Little outward things with great inward love is the secret of the holiness of many of the saints. But she does not wish to preach to him. She will be satisfied if she can make him happy. He should be at peace—his learning can draw people to God, while a harsh creed may frighten them away. And he should not think himself too proud to write, his daughters. Mother does not have time to write, but sends her love. P.S. She has just received his letter and thanks him for all his beautiful thoughts. He should contemplate the Infinite Mercy of God, not dwell on his own misery. :: I-2-f A.L.S. 6pp. 12mo.
