Stay, my child, close, very close to the feet of Jesus with Mary Magdalene; content with practicing those little virtues which are more suited to your age and your spirit. A retailer is entrusted, not a big basket, but a little.
I recommend, because it is typical of your age, the holy simplicity, having conquered the heart of Jesus. Do not be afraid of those dangers that you see from afar, as you write me, and we have tried to word length on several occasions. You think you are hosts, and are nothing to willows with many branches and at the walk, you run the risk of cheat, until you have before you.
Here, my child, a strong and general purpose of wanting to serve and love God with all thy heart, and, beyond this, you will not worry any thought of the future. Think about doing good in the present day, and when tomorrow comes, then call today, and then it's time to think about it.
Always have great confidence and resignation in divine providence, and not try to make more provisions of mana that you need for the present day, and never doubt that God will rain the next day, and so on every day of your life.
(November 25, 1917, Luis Bozzuto - Letters. IV, p. 403)
