Don't worry too much – at least at certain moments – about your impatience or brusqueness. Don't talk about it to God as if it were something He dislikes – at least I think sometimes. You don't have to fight against all of this. You would be wasting both time and courage. Just surrender yourself sincerely to Christ; in time, from the depths of your being, Christ Himself will evoke an unstoppable wave of love that will engulf everything.
(P. Albert Peyriguere /1883–1959/, letter to a sister in the order – teacher, December 12, 1931)
