721-733, Interior Struggle.

Find support in Jesus + Mary, God tore out your human consolation by the roots so you have nothing left to cling to but him, as God's instrument you need time to yourself, keep up the fight against passions, devil attacks quietly/hypocritically/spiritually with despair avoiding repentance, your loneliness + shouts for help seem heard by nobody but God hears & responds with calm/peace/healing, be humble & pain/temptation/rawness will pass, fortitude on loan, grow more sure of God & less of yourself, don't leave God, abandon yourself & depend on Jesus for everything, rest in Jesus, trust in God who does not lose battles.
