About this ebook
For more than 250 years, this simple classic of inspiration has guided readers of all faiths to the open-hearted acceptance of God's will that is the sure path to serenity, happiness, and spiritual peace.
"A spiritual classic of the first order... a book for all those who truly seek God." --Dom David Knowles
"Father de Caussade has a wonderful way of encouraging the doubtful, of nurturing the personal surrender that is so much a part of the development of faith. The book is a mystery of its own -- and is definitely not for Christians only." --Rabbi Joshua Chasan
"Abandonment to Divine Providence is a classic perhaps more necessary now than ever before. It's a little book that rightly rejects the spirituality of fear and trembling (and the modern preoccupation with dreary self-absorption) in favor of an abiding trust in God's active benevolence. This is a work one reads again and again, always with gratitude and astonishment." --Donald Spoto, Author of Blue Angel and The Dark Side of Genius

When it comes to religion I do not understand the basis for acceptance of all faiths? if you do not believe in what I believe (aka Catholism) then quoting Chris Rhea you're on 'The Road To Hell'. Now what sort of religious wouldn't try to save your soul by correcting your error of faith? I as a true Roman Catholic and not a member of the Novis Order believe that the chair of St Peter is empty 'sede vacante' but I am still bound by The Ten Commandments and with regards to The Fifth Commandment I am bound to try to correct others who are spirituality poor or destitute, this includes all non Catholics and we are bound to correct them even more gravely than we are bound to give food to a starving person. I've quoted J,S Daly heavily above so that it's not just my opinion but Dogma of the Roman Catholic church. Sitting on the fence regarding religion is not an option so the truth is that Jesus Christ is Our Lord and the second person of The Holy Trinity, believe or you will end up in Hell.
