“You cannot know what God is doing, but you can trust that He is doing it.” For more than two hundred years, this quiet masterpiece has guided souls away from anxiety and toward peace—not by escaping life’s trials, but by meeting them with a simple, open-hearted “yes.” In clear, vibrant prose, this faithful modern-English edition of Jean-Pierre de Caussade’s classic invites you to discover the “sacrament of the present moment”: the belief that God is constantly and lovingly at work in every ordinary event, desire, and struggle. Whether you feel spiritually dry, overwhelmed, or merely curious about a deeper trust, de Caussade’s letters and treatise offer a gentle path to letting go—not into passivity, but into an active, confident surrender that frees the soul. This edition preserves the original’s depth while making its wisdom immediately accessible to today’s reader. Part of The Modern Wisdom Library.
