Letter 27

TO DON ANGELO BOSIO
She submits a method of life for her Confessor’s approval.

Very Reverend Spiritual Father,

I could no longer resist inner inspirations the Lord has
been giving me to reform my life by drawing up a method of
life through which all my actions could be regulated by virtue:
by carrying it out perfectly well I could truly please my most
gentle Spouse and become a Saint.

I have prepared it according to the inspirations I had; I

have put down without any order whatever seemed to me
most conducive to saintliness. Now I am sending it to you,
Reverend Father, so that you may examine it and see if it is
suitable for me and if you can allow me to follow it, while on
my part I assure you that by God’s grace I am resolved to do
my best to put it into practice in all its details. I beg you to add
to it any omissions you consider profitable for my poor soul.
If on the other hand there is anything that you don’t
deem suitable for me, cross it out, and I will be equally happy,

- 74 -
