JESUS APPEALS TO THE WORLD
Product Description
Author: Fr. Lorenzo Sales IMC. 194 pg. PB
This work presents the unceasing act of love revealed to the Capuchin nun, Sister Mary Consolata Betrone (1903-1946) and is written by her spiritual director, Father Lorenzo Sales, IMC. (1892-1972). After one reads this book by Father Sales, which is based on the writings of Sister Consolata, you are convinced that those writings are too beautiful, too luminous, too tied up with the Spirit, to have originated here on earth. There is too much humility in Sister Consolata for her to have deceived herself and have accepted as words spoken by Our Lord what might instead be mere figments of her imagmation. There is so much clarity in the soul of this Religious that the words in which she relates the manifestations of the Beloved of her soul reflect the very brightness of heaven. There is so much love for Jesus in this angelic spouse of His, a love founded upon sacrifice, on self-denial, on annihilation of her own ego, that is for this reason a true and sincere love. It is not to be wondered at, therefore, that the Divine Spouse should have wished to make use of her for bringing His message of love to a world which loves Him so little. A fantastic and uplifting spiritual classic for our times and best seller around the world for the last 40 years.
