The central theme of de Caussade's spiritual teaching is abandonment of self and the act of submission to the will of God. It is the remedy he prescribed for all the afflictions and suffering of which the sisters [he was spiritual director to] complained in their letters to him. De Caussade's doctrine of self-abandonment to Divine Providence, and his view that suffering is not only to be endured but welcomed as the will of God present a valuable and hopeful alternative to the prevailing doctrine of self-fulfillment, and contain a powerful message for today's material society, which sees suffering as totally unacceptable.

Download or read book Abandonment to Divine Providence written by Jean-Pierre de Caussade and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-05-21 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Abandonment to Divine Providence, Jean-Pierre de Caussade wrote that the present moment is holy and that people should abandon themselves to present, a stance that is in stark contrast to the Catholic focus on the future and life after death. For de Caussade, living in the moment meant having a complete trust and faith in God, for God's will defined and guided all things. The practical advice contained in his guidebook for the faithful was originally a series of letters written for the Nuns of the Visitation of Nancy, meant to help them navigate the confusing and difficult work of spiritual enlightenment, and comes together here in two distinct parts, one for the theoretical foundations of abandoning oneself to the present moment and one with practical advice on how to live such a life. Though a departure from the standard Christian perspective, Abandonment to Divine Providence remains a deeply spiritual work with a message that many Christians may find freeing and inspiring. The present book is an English translation of the Tenth French Edition of Fr. de Caussade's "Abandon � la Providence Divine," edited, to the great benefit of many souls, by Fr. H. Rami�re, S. J. It is divided into two unequal parts, the first containing a treatise on total abandonment to Divine Providence, and the second, letters of direction for persons leading a spiritual life. The "Treatise" comprises two different aspects of Abandonment to Divine Providence; one as a virtue, common and necessary to all Christians, the other as a state, proper to souls who have made a special practice of abandonment to the holy will of God. The "Letters of Direction," now for the first time translated into English, were addressed to Nuns of the Visitation at Nancy. Fr. de Caussade had been stationed in this town for some time, and when later he was called away, his letters to the Nuns carried on the powerful influence he had exercised over them. They were treasured and preserved with religious care, and thus have come down to our own days. Fr. de Rami�re, S. J., collected these letters, and edited them with painstaking labour.

That is the message of this 18th-century inspirational classic by Jean-Pierre de Caussade. Its encouragement to "live in the present moment," accepting everyday 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 numerous 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 available to all people - from beginners to those well advanced in the spiritual life. He also shows how to determine what God's will is for us. He reveals that it is not extraordinary feats that God expects for our growth in holiness, but rather 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 again and again.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE SPIRITUAL LIFE: A TREATISE ON ASCETICAL AND MYSTICAL THEOLOGY REVEREND ADOLPHE TANQUEREY — A Catholic Classic! — Two Parts of Four Books in One — Includes 1,773 Active Linked Footnotes — Includes Active Linked Headings, Index and Table of Contents — Includes Religious Illustrations Publisher: Available in Paperbacks: FIRST PART: ISBN-13: 978-1-78379-507-9 SECOND PART: ISBN-13: 978-1-78379-508-6 It is the writer’s conviction that Dogma is the foundation of Ascetical Theology and that an exposition of what God has done and still does for us is the most efficacious motive of true devotion. Hence, care has been taken to recall briefly the truths of faith on which the spiritual life rests. This treatise then is first of all doctrinal in character and aims at bringing out the fact that Christian perfection is the logical outcome of dogma, especially of the central dogma of the Incarnation. The work however is also practical, for a vivid realization of the truths of faith is the strongest incentive to earnest and steady efforts towards the correction of faults and the practice of virtues. Consequently in the first part of this treatise the practical conclusions that naturally flow from revealed truths and the general means of perfection are developed. The second part contains a more detailed exposition of the special means of advancing along the Three Ways towards the heights of perfection.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did Christ found His Church on St. Peter? Was Peter prince of the Apostles and visible head of the Church? Was he infallible in his doctrinal teaching? Had he the power to make laws that bind all Christians? Was he the first bishop of Rome? Were his privileges communicated by divine law to succeeding Roman Pontiffs? Is there a consensus on the answer to these questions discernible in the New Testament and in the Early Fathers and Councils? No one could be better qualified than Cardinal Merry del Val (1865-1930) to answer these questions. Distinguished for his learning and holiness, he was selected by Pope St. Pius X as his right hand man and spent his adult life in the most senior Vatican posts. This book, written in reply to Protestant propaganda, effortlessly sweeps away errors and misunderstandings leaving the truth plain to any sincere reader. It quotes all the major sources of the early centuries. An ideal book to instruct Catholics or convert Protestants.

Download or read book Abandonment to Divine Providence written by de Caussade and published by . This book was released on 2017-03-22 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "Abandonment to Divine Providence" of Fr. de Caussade is as far removed from the false inactivity of theQuietists, as true Christian resignation is distinct from the fatalism of Mohammedans. It is a trusting, childlike,peaceful abandonment to the guidance of grace, and of the Holy Spirit: an unquestioning and undoubtingsubmission to the holy will of God in all things that may befall us, be they due to the action of man, or to thedirect permission of God. To Fr. de Caussade, abandonment to God, the " Ita Pater " of our Divine Lord, the " Fiat" of our Blessed Lady, is the shortest, surest, and easiest way to holiness and peace. Fr. de Caussade's work mustbe read with a certain amount of discretion, as naturally every advice he gives does not apply to all readersindiscriminately. Some of his counsels may be appropriate for beginners; others for souls of a more advanceddegree of spirituality. No one, however, can fail to recognize in his writings the sure tone of a "Master," who hasunited practical to theoretical knowledge of his subject.Every page is redolent with the unction of the Spirit of God, and readers will find in his doctrine a heavenlymanna, a food of unfailing strength for their souls. The present work has been carefully translated into readableEnglish, and more regard has been paid to the meaning than 'to the literal exactness of the sentences. Theelevated, noble style of the author has been preserved throughout. It is a real contribution to the spiritual literatureof England.I am aware that our English word "Abandonment " does not adequately render the meaning of the French word"Abandon," but we have no better expression. The translation has been undertaken solely for the purpose ofhelping souls to follow the hidden paths of the spiritual life, and to surrender themselves entirely to the guidanceof the Holy Spirit.
