I belong to Him. He has the right to me. Let Him say what He wills. Let Him ask of me what He pleases. It is ungenerous to make conditions. He has a right to all, because I am the work of His Hands. He made me with a purpose that I Should do His will. He has never changed. It is I who have changed. It is I who have been unmindful of the purpose for which He made me. But though I Should come with many, many years of my life wasted, with innumerable graces thrown away, He wills it still - that end, my own good. He stood in no need of me. All He asks is for my own benefit. Who so happy as the soul that gives itself to the Divine Will? Who so happy here? Who so happy in the world to come? Was I ever the better for my wilfulness? How often I have swept away the Divine Will! Have I not always been the worse for so doing? Has ih difference to His Will, has drifting idly, carelessly, done me good? There shall be an end to this careless indifference, so that I may come to God. This is my day, a day given in order that I may do what He wants me to do who made me 'out of love.

This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Eight Days' Retreat for Religious Owing to a variety of circumstances it not seldom happens that a religious is unable to make the yearly retreat under a competent director with the rest of the community. In the majority of such cases the only alternative is to make the retreat by oneself, as best one may with the assistance of some standard commentary on the Spiritual Exercises of St. Igna tius. But as a rule these commentaries are found to be hardly adapted to this object. They are intended rather for the use of retreat-masters to help them bring out the profound doctrine, the logical sequence, and the lofty inspiration of the golden treatise left us by St. Ignatius Loyola.

Download or read book A Long Retreat written by Andrew Krivak and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2015-05-12 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This gorgeously written memoir, A Long Retreat, tells the story of one man's search for his religious calling-a search that led him to the Dominican Republic and Central Europe, to Moscow and the South Bronx, and finally into married life with a woman whose search for God coincided with his own. In 1990 Andrew Krivak-poet, yacht rigger, ocean lifeguard, student of the classics-entered the Society of Jesus. The heart of Jesuit training is the Long Retreat, thirty days of silence and prayer in which the Jesuit novice reflects on the Gospels and tests his desire for the priesthood. For Krivak, eight years of Jesuit formation turned out to be a long retreat in its own right, as he tested all his desires-for poetry, for travel, for independence, for love-against the pledge to do all "for the greater glory of God." And in this deeply affecting book the long retreat becomes a pattern for our own spiritual lives, enabling us to embrace our desire for solitude and perspective in our own circumstances, the way Krivak has in his new life as a husband, father, and writer. The search for God is finally the search for oneself, St. Augustine wrote. Krivak's story pushes past the awful stories of scandal in the Catholic Church to reveal why a modern, forward-looking man would yearn to be a priest. Unlike those stories, it has an happy ending-one in which we can recognize ourselves.
Book Synopsis Sketches for the Exercises of an Eight Days' Retreat (Classic Reprint) by : Hugo Hurter
Download or read book Sketches for the Exercises of an Eight Days' Retreat (Classic Reprint) written by Hugo Hurter and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sketches for the Exercises of an Eight Days' Retreat As a help for those who wish to avail themselves of this plan of eight days' spiritual exercises, we beg leave to make a few preliminary remarks. I. It is self-evident that this plan presupposes the little book or text of the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius; because our object is only to develop somewhat further the meditations in that book, and thus to call attention to the abundance of thought therein contained. Thus these meditations may become all the more helpful for the salvation of souls. Hence we take for granted the many practical hints laid down in the numerous annotations and additions which the Saint applies on suitable occasions. These pages are not intended as a commentary on the Book of Exercises, but rather as a development of the points of meditation. 2. The meditations are especially composed or priests, theologians, and members of religious communities; however, lay persons also, both men and women, will find in them much which they can with profit apply to themselves. 3. The meditations will not be equally useful or sufficient for all alike, because the circumstances and needs of individuals are so very different.

Book Synopsis A Private Retreat for Religious by : Peter Geiermann
Download or read book A Private Retreat for Religious written by Peter Geiermann and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-21 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Private Retreat for Religious: Enriched With Reflections and Select Readings Taken From the Spiritual Writings of St. Alphonsus There. Are many earnest souls working in the vineyard of the Lord, whose labors do not permit them to make the annual public retreat. Many others desire to spend a few days in solitude at the close Of the year, or at some other time when their occupation will allow them to do so. There are still others, who, deriving more benefit from a private than a public retreat, prefer to make the Spiritual exercises in total seclusion and Silence. To all such this Private Retreat for Religious is Offered as an aid. To derive a lasting benefit from the exercise of a retreat we must do three things: (1) meditate on the eternal truths till they permeate our very being; (2) examine our conscience till we come to know ourselves, if possible, as God knows us; (3) submit ourselves unreservedly to the influence of grace by fervent prayer. Thus only can we form and live up to practical resolutions which will bring us to perfection, for only by frequent, sincere, and systematic reflection can we make the salutary truths of our holy religion our own. 'by fidelity to this practice we shall not only ah sorb these truths into our mind, but we Shall also make them, so to speak, enter into and become a part of our very flesh and blood. Unless we become in this way so familiarized with the eter nal truths that, like St. Aloysius, we instinctively ask, What does this count for eternity? We can not look upon life habitually from the point of view Of almighty God. And yet, this is literally necessary for every true follower of Jesus Christ.

A special fragrance hangs round his memory. One, perhaps the' chief, element of this special fragrance, all who knew the Father will agree, was his special devotion to the Sacred Heart, ever pleading for us, and, above all, his continual labour to make that Heart and Its pleading known and loved. His continual labour - just as honey is the sweet and fragrant product of the manifold toil of the hive. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Retreat Addresses to Women (Classic Reprint) written by Jonas Pascal Fitzwilliam Davidson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-18 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Retreat Addresses to Women The present volume contains a selection from the many Retreats given to Religious Communities, and their Associ ates by Mr. Davidson. It has been compiled from his own notes, which were for the most part full and distinct. The last Retreat (at Ditchingham, 1898) is the only exception to this. It was supplied from the shorthand notes of two of the Retreatants, and is believed to be very accurate. It may be noticed that the subjects of two sets of these addresses The Vine and the Branches, and the Prayer in St. John xvii. Are similar to two in the Companion Volume of' Addresses to Clergy. But it need hardly be said that the treatment in each case is quite different, and suited to the needs of those especially addressed. The Editor wishes to express her great obligation to the Rev. Herbert F. Hunt, Vicar of Cookham Dean, Berks, who has revised and corrected the proof-sheets both of this and of the Notes of Addresses to the Clergy. Without his assistance the publication of these volumes would have been well-nigh impossible. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
