Archimandrite Raphael (Karelin). "On the Path from Time to Eternity."
Hegumeness Angelina recounted: "A novice came to me and said, 'Mother, bless me to go to the city market today.' I replied, 'You'll go tomorrow.' But she continued to insist, 'No, Mother, bless me to go today.' I replied, 'Child, this will not be my blessing, but yours. You wish to fulfill your own will through me.'"
