In a letter to Monsignor Giovanni Volpi, Italian bishop and her confessor, she explained what Christ and the saints did. “The devil makes me suffer a lot, ending up being defeated by Jesus or Saint Paul (of the Cross) or my confrere Gabriel. It’s always these three. If I saw how he escapes as soon as one of them shows up! ”She said.
The saint said that apparently Saint Gabriel obtained from Jesus the grace to receive the devil’s attacks “only at night.”
Once, the evil one tormented her with the memory of a sin, forgiven by the Lord, that she committed years ago and dragged her along the ground. When she was lying on the floor, she invoked Christ, who came to Saint Gabriel and restored her strength.
