Abandonment to Divine Providence: How to fulfill your daily duties with God-given purpose

Are you anxious about the trials of life? Father de Caussade offers the one sure solution to any spiritual difficulty: abandon yourself entirely to the Lord by embracing the duties of your station in life.

An Introduction to the Devout Life
“You aim at true devotion, my dear Philothea, because, as a Christian, you know how acceptable it is to the Divine Majesty. But inasmuch as trifling errors at the outset of any undertaking are wont to increase rapidly as we advance, frequently becoming almost irreparable, it is needful that, first of all, you should ascertain wherein lies the virtue of devotion.” —St. Francis de Sales Everyone wants to go to Heaven, but how many of us actually know how to get there? Learn from the writings of St. Francis de Sales, the Doctor of Charity, on this very matter in his best-known work that specifically addresses this most important question.
