Unabridged, with authors' biographical sketches This 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, man's 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.

Autorenporträt
(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 Alençon 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.
