The Groundwork of the Christian Virtues (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Groundwork of the Christian VirtuesNext to the God of all condescension, who is the lover of humble souls, to whom but to you should I dedicate this book? So long as your motto expresses your life, so long as you seek God alone, and find in Him the supreme object of your desires so long as you are earnest as well in the second object of your life, to draw to God the poor, the ignorant, and the suffering, whom Christ has redeemed; so long will the charity and sweet peace of God be with you, and the fragrance of your cheerful virtues will attract other souls to follow your example. This, my dear Sisters, is the earnest prayer of your devoted Father in Christ.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
