You really must control your feelings, or you will get yourself into grave difficulties, and make Very Reverend Doctor Gezelle regret having tried to help you.
I enclose his firstp2card to me.
I then wrote and asked,[1] if you were in a Convent at Bruges, he could hear your confession once a week. He replied:[2]
“I advised Sister Zita to stay where she is for some time. If she consents to this I will allow her to write to me now and again, or to come to Confession when in difficulty. I will speak to the Reverend Father Tillieux, p3a very good friend of mine, and ask him to be kind to her.” -
Now you really must be prudent, or you will get talked about. You must do as Doctor Gezelle tells you. You may be sure that he will do all he can for you.
I have no objection to the Convent at Bruges. -
What would happen if Doctor Gezelle died? or was made a Bishop? - p4On these occasions we must remember God is all, and no creature can help us except as He wills. Doctor Gezelle very naturally wants to see his way at Bruges.
God bless you. Just kneel quietly before the Blessed Sacrament, resign yourself entirely to God, and you will get calmer.
