Sometimes discernment seems complicated, and we struggle to "be still" to listen to God's voice. Following the death of his spiritual director, St. Alphonsus Liguori penned timeless advice in a letter to one of his spiritual daughters, and it became the famous work titled Uniformity with God's Will. Now Dan Burke breaks open St. Alphonsus's eighteenth-century classic for you. He intersperses relevant explanations and insights within the text of this great saint and includes reflection questions for each chapter.
St. Alphonsus explains, "We should most confidently abandon ourselves to all the dispositions of divine providence, since they are for our own good." In page after page, Burke shows you how the "wind and waves" can help you ascend to union with God. You will discover:
- The "paralyzing cocktail" we drink when we reject God's will
- When good works are displeasing to God (Can you guess?)
- Three prayers that will assist you in directing all things to God's will
- Two ways we can know God's love and hear His voice
- Two life-altering spiritual disciplines according to St. Teresa of
