Abandonment to Divine Providence: A Classic Voice of Christian Mysticism and Divine Providence - Paperback

by Father Jean-Pierre de Caussade (Author)

De Caussade, Father Jean-Pierre presents the spiritual wisdom of one of the enduring voices of Christian mysticism, surrender, and trust in divine providence. Jean-Pierre de Caussade is best remembered for his teaching on abandonment to God's will: the disciplined spiritual practice of receiving the duties, trials, obscurities, and ordinary circumstances of life as the place where divine grace is encountered. His work speaks from within the Catholic devotional and mystical tradition, yet its central concern is immediate and practical-the soul's surrender to God in the present moment.

Marked by humility, inward attention, and deep confidence in providence, de Caussade's writing has long appealed to readers seeking spiritual direction, contemplative discipline, and a life of prayer lived within ordinary responsibilities. This edition will interest readers of Christian mysticism, Catholic spirituality, devotional classics, spiritual formation, prayer, surrender, providence, and classic works on the interior life.
