Abandonment to Divine Providence



(I love this cover because it represents so clearly what the whole book is about - opening your hands to God and letting him have it all in each moment.)

I also have one that is more balloon as no water:



This book repeated itself a lot, but it is so infused with Ignatian principles (Caussade was a French Jesuit priest) that I loved the repetition (and I know how much Ignatius LOVED repetition). 

I am so glad I read it. It is all about abandoning oneself to God's presence in the present moment because that is all there is to do! I love that, and it has been the journey I have been on for 46 years, ever since what happened to me on the OSU campus at sunset. Here is the video:


God is so good to answer this prayer. I am more and more able to "be where my feet are"!
