Publisher Description Unabridged, with authors biographical sketchesThis selection of inspirational works by two highly respected Jesuits from the late renaissance is a guide for those who seek "the peace which passeth all understanding."While Saint-Jure preceded de la Colombiere by some fifty years their messages are perfectly aligned. Addressing thorny questions such as why does God allow evil? and should we pray for money and material well-being?, the authors give clear answers and conclude with what they believe to be a universal truth: namely that, mans sins apart, God is responsible for all that happens to us and as God loves us and has our interests at heart, everything - joyous or painful - is for our own good. Trusting acceptance of this belief will allow us to perceive the trials and tribulations of our lives in a positive way and will thus bring great serenity.Trustful Surrender to Divine Providence is a little gem of a book whose message accords with many other non-Christian mystical disciplines and, as such, is a valuable lodestar for all who wish to progress on the path no matter what their religious provenance. Author Biography (1588-1657) Born at Metz in 1588, Jean-Baptiste Saint-Jure was a Catholic priest who in 1604 entered the Society of Jesus (or Jesuit order) at Nancy and for a while taught grammar and philosophy. He served as rector of a school he founded in Alenon and later presided over schools in Amiens, Orleans and Paris. He oversaw the spiritual direction of many prominent mystics, among them Baron of Renty, the Cloistered Dominican nuns of Paris, and Mother Jeanne of the Angels, who was Mother superior of the Loudun Ursuline convent at the time of the Loudun possessions. As a prolific and influential writer, Saint-Jure was well known among the Catholic community of France. He died in Paris in 1657. (1641-1682) St. Claude de la Colombire was born in Saint-Symphorien-dOzon, a small town south of Lyons in France. He entered the Society of Jesus at Avignon when he was seventeen and, following his two-year novitiate, he went on through the various stages of the Jesuit education system to be finally ordained a priest in 1669. St. Claude progressed through his vows, gaining a reputation for the clarity of his sermons. In 1675, he became the rector of the Jesuit community at Paray-le-Monial and spiritual director of the nuns at the nearby Monastery of the Visitation. He believed the truth of Sr. Margaret Mary Alacoques visions and supported her in her devotion of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. In 1676, St. Claude was sent to England as chaplain and preacher to the Duchess of York, Mary Beatrice of Modena, who later became the second wife of King James II and so Queen Consort of England, Scotland and Ireland. Hard work and the English climate weakened his health and in 1678, while awaiting his recall to France, he was arrested and imprisoned amid false accusations of a Catholic plot against the English throne. The poor conditions in Kings Bench Prison further worsened his health and though he was saved from a death sentence due to his position at the Court of St. James and the patronage of King Louis XIV of France, he never fully recovered after being expelled from England. He died two years later at Paray-le-Monial, the remote location he had worked in as rector seven years before. St. Claude was beatified by Pope Pius XI in 1929 and canonized by Pope John Paul II in 1992. His relics are preserved in the Jesuit Church at Paray-le-Monial.
