This may be my all time favorite devotional classic. Sometime after my 'spiritual awakening' a few decades ago I was highly taken by its message. I steadily purchased copy after copy and gave it to friends, as the Holy Spirit moved me. The local Catholic bookstore stocked said they stocked it just for me.
It is actually two seperate classics of which the 2nd is my favorite. It begins...It is one of the most firmly established and most consoling of the truths that have been revealed to us that (apart from sin) nothing happens to us in life unless God wills it so. Wealth and poverty alike come from Him. If we fall ill, God is the cause of our illness; if we get well, our recovery is due to God. We owe our lives entirely to Him, and when death comes to put an end to life, His will be the hand that deals the blow.
This book changed my spiritual life perhaps more than any other. It's worth a purchase just to carry around in your pocket and pull out on a whim (inspiriation).
