Self-Abandonment to Divine Providence - Featuring the Letters of Fr. de Caussade on the Practice of Self-Abandonment

By Fr. J. P. de Caussade, SJ

Probably the greatest classic on surrendering our wills to Divine Providence (God's will). Filled with beautiful, penetrating insights, an incredibly rich store of Catholic wisdom. Shows how sanctity is to be attained amidst our common daily activities when performed to perfection and for the love of God. Written to help those who despair of ever becoming holy. A great and famous classic!
