God is to be found in the most straightforward of our daily activities and especially through total give up to whatever is His will for each of us. That is the message of this 18th-century inspirational classic by Jean-Pierre de Caussade. Its encouragement to “live in the present moment,” accepting on a regular basis obstacles with faith, humility and love, has guided generations of believers to holiness and spiritual peace.
This special volume of the famous spiritual treatise also includes the many insightful letters of Father de Caussade on the practice of self-abandonment. These a large number of letters provide a great additional source of wisdom and practical guidance for how to grow in abandonment and to deepen our union with God in our daily lives.
De Caussade shows that this practice of self-abandonment to God’s will is the key to attaining true peace and virtue, and that it is readily To be had to all people – from beginners to those well advanced in the spiritual life. He also shows how to resolve what God’s will is for us. He reveals that it isn’t bizarre feats that God expects for our growth in holiness, but moderately heroic attention to every detail in our lives and humble acceptance of our daily lot in life as coming from His hand.
The rich spiritual lessons in this book have stood the test of time, offering real and practical assistance to all people because its message is simple and clear, one that the reader will find to be a rare treasure of inspiration and direction to be referred to over and over.
