Welcome to Day 12 of Abandonment to Divine Providence by Fr. Jean-Pierre de Caussade. In today’s episode, you will hear Chapters 6 and 7.
In Chapter 6, Fr. de Caussade articulates how divine love is interwoven into the fabric of our existence, much like the sacred mystery of the Eucharist. He prompts us to perceive every encounter, action, and burden as a genuine communion with God's divine will. By drawing a compelling parallel between our earthly experiences and the sacramental grace found in the Eucharist, he challenges us to recognize that every moment holds potential for union with God. This chapter reveals the simplicity of finding holiness in the ordinary, stating that the "holiest life is mysterious in its simplicity and apparent lowliness."
In Chapter 7, Fr. de Caussade addresses the frequent neglect of God's will in our lives, paralleling it to the rejection Christ faced during his earthly ministry. He observes that many overlook the divine action present in their everyday misfortunes and trials, mistakenly believing themselves deserving of a life free of obstacles. He urges listeners to reconsider their perceptions of suffering and disappointment as parts of God's infinite wisdom.
