Consoling Thoughts From Father Faber

There is true consolation, deeply hidden indeed, yet near at hand, in putting away of human consolation. It is in the darkness of nature that we realise the vicinity of Jesus. It is in the absence of creatures that we are held up in the sensible embrace of the Creator.

  1. Thank you. This is perfect timing. I had been afraid that someone I depended on would ot be trustworthy in the end. Then I realized from my many readings of "Abandonment to the Divine Provedence" That I have absolutely have nothing to fear. God Alone.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
