Abandonment to Divine Providence
Posted by Bruce O. on Sep 6th 2022
Very deep but very powerful. Need to read it slowly and with much reflection. Suffers a bit from the pedantic writing style common to the 17 th century. I have only read about 19% so far.

All Time Best Devotional!
Posted by Beth M. on Aug 28th 2022
This is far and away my favorite devotional. When I have read it through, I just start over again at the beginning. I never fail to find fresh insights! (I must confess though that the version I read is longer as it contains responses to letters written to him for spiritual advice).
