Description:Excerpt from The Secret of Sanctity: According to St. Francis De Sales and Father Crasset, S. J Our great happiness as Christians is to possess, in this world, through grace and love, Him Who deigns to be our beatitude for all eternity; and our greatest misfortune, after sin, is not to know or to recognize this secret of eternal charity. God would have us holy even as He is holy; He would have us live His very life. It is for this end that He has given us His divine Son, and with Him the infinite riches of His heart; that is, His merits, His sacraments, His Church. Sanctity consists in believing and receiving these divine communications, of which Jesus Christ is the source, the instrument, and the end; consequently, it also consists in uniting ourselves with Him by loving Him, and in modelling ourselves upon Him by imitating Him; it can and ought to pervade every life, the busiest as well as the simplest. "I believe," says Father de Caussade, "that if souls seriously aspiring to perfection understood this, and knew how direct is their path, they would be spared much difficulty. I say the same of souls living in the world, and of souls consecrated to God. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
