A Daily Dose of Art: The Sacrament of the Present Moment
I read The Sacrament of the Present Moment today for something I’m writing and it was lovely. I don’t agree with all of it, but that’s what our critical thinking skills are for.
“The Sacrament of the Present Moment is the three hundred-year-old classic of spiritual guidance and enlightenment by Jean-Pierre de Caussade, ordained member of the Society of Jesus. In this wise, hopeful, and powerfully stirring masterwork of Christian thought and daily practice, de Caussade encourages a selfless abandonment to God as a means of achieving grace and conquering pride and ego. Each day is a sacrament, the author assures us, and the lessons and wisdom of The Sacrament of the Present Moment can better enable us to hear God’s voice as He speaks to us, always, with love.” -from the publisher
