Nov. 30
Remember that peace of mind can be maintained in the midst of the many storms of this life, you know very well that is essentially in harmony with our neighbors, wishing you all well, which is also in friendship with God through sanctifying grace , and the test of being united to God is the moral certainty that we do not have mortal sin that weighs upon your soul. In short, peace is to have gotten the victory over the world, and the devil's own passions.
So, tell me, is it not true that this peace brought by Jesus can keep well, not only when our spirit is in abundance of consolations, but when the heart is immersed in bitterness because of the grunts and screams of enemy?
(October 10, 1914, to Raffaelina Cerase - Letters. II, p. 185)
