Wisdom for Every Life Situation

I cannot live without referencing this book frequently. I love it because it is individual letters and that makes it an easy read to pick up whenever you need it. St. Francis covers everything from pregnancy ("Do not ask from yourself what you do not have"), to peace when thinking about the death of a loved one, ("Think only of purgatory and heaven," and "The world is only peopled to people heaven.") Beautiful and appropriate for any person in any stage of life.

Marvelous pastoral advice

In this collection of letters written by Saint Francis de Sales, it's easy to see that people are the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. Saint Francis' gentle advice and counsel is as appropriate today as it was 300+ years ago. He clearly teaches his correspondents how to achieve holiness in whatever walk of life they find themselves in. Although a few of these letters are written to men and women in religious life, most are to ordinary laywomen (mostly) and laymen. Great spiritual reading!
