  • Any suggestions for good reading specifically for lent, have read St Alphonsus and St Thomas Aquinas, looking for something else

  • The Spiritual Combat by Lorenzo Scupoli
    Let nothing disturb you, let nothing frighten you, all things pass away: God never changes. Patience obtains all things. He who has God finds he lacks nothing; God alone suffices. - St. Teresa of Jesus

  • I'm reading Eternal Hell by Fr Chazal.  Truly terrifying.

  • I seem to have stumbled on Abandonment to Divine Providence by Jean Pierre de Caussade.

    Thus far it is incredibly helpful and mind opening. 

    Can anyone recommend it or tell me anything about their experience with it? 

    Thanks!

  • What I've been reading is the Tragedy of Calvary by Rev. Meagher, the Philokalia and Homilies of St. Macarius
    "Be not therefore solicitous for tomorrow; for the morrow will be solicitous for itself. Sufficient for the day is the evil thereof." [Matt. 6:34]

    "In all thy works remember thy last end, and thou shalt never sin." [Ecclus. 7:40]

    "A holy man continueth in wisdom as the sun: but a fool is changed as the moon." [Ecclus. 27:12]
