Santa Gemma Galgani: tenderness, severity and reproaches of the guardian angel

FROM THE DIARY OF SANTA GEMMA GALGANI

Tenderness, severity and reproaches of the guardian angel.

Tonight I slept with my guardian angel beside me; in waking up I saw him near me; he asked me where I went. "From Jesus," I replied.

The rest of the day went very well. My God, but towards evening that never happened! The guardian angel became serious and severe; I didn't know the reason, but he, because I can't hide anything, in severe thunder (when I started reciting the usual prayers) asked me to do it. "You are welcome". "Who are you waiting for?" (becoming more serious). I didn't think of anything. "Confratel Gabriele" [I answered].

The angel shows her his benevolence. Warnings of spiritual life.

I never saw him again tonight, not even this morning; today he told me that I adored Jesus, who was alone, and then he recovered. Then tonight it was much better than the evening before; the

I asked for forgiveness several times, and he seemed willing to forgive me. He was always with me tonight: he kept saying to me that I was good and no longer disgust our Jesus and, when I am in his presence, he is better and better.
