Synopsis

"Let go and let God." This popular phrase captures the essence of Father Jean-Pierre de Caussade's 18th century treatise on trust, Abandonment to Divine Providence.Do you doubt? Do you suffer? Are you anxious about the trials of life?Father de Caussade offers the one sure solution to any spiritual difficulty: abandon yourself entirely to God by embracing the duties of your station in life. With wisdom and gentleness he teaches how to practice complete submission to the will of God in every situation, whether we are beginners or seasoned travelers on the way of perfection. True abandonment, he explains, is a trusting, peaceful, and childlike surrender to the guidance of grace.

ENGLISH: I have read this book in an English translation from the original French. The work proper is one fourth of the size of the book, which was completed by many letters, addressed mainly to nuns, giving them counsel. At a point, those letters become a little repetitive. I think this work is part......more
