Excerpt from Life of the Curé D'arsThe holy life of M. Vianney, better known as the Cure of Ars, can scarcely fail to be of the deepest interest to all. The work is written with the utmost simplicity, by one who was well acquainted with the saintly priest whose life is described. It is also touching to observe, that God has chosen here, as elsewhere, "the foolish things of this world to confound the wise, " for the worldly learning of the Cure of Ars was nothing compared with the supernatural powers granted him by Almighty God for the benefit of souls.The book places briefly before the reader's mind the family, pastoral, heroic, hidden and apostolic life of the good priest of Ars. It is well to study these various parts which make up a life simple at once and saintly. Each portion is read with ever increasing interest, and the charm of freshness is added by the childlike manner in which the truth is related.We see here how divine grace perfects nature, how that heavenly gift causes a resemblance among the saints.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
