Our simple task is to love God in the present moment. In this life-changing work, Jean-Pierre de Caussade reveals a spiritual exercise appropriate no matter what our duties and circumstances. We must love God whatever happens and take everything around us an expression of his will. We should allow all our actions to be divinely and intuitively guided. Sanctity consists simply in this loving response to God. Jean-Pierre de Caussade was a member of the Society of Jesus, a preacher, and a spiritual director. His classic work, Abandonment to Divine Providence, has for almost three centuries demonstrated to Christians the power of living in the present moment.
