The Life and Times of Margaret Bourgeoys

Angebote / Angebote:

Excerpt from The Life and Times of Margaret Bourgeoys: The Venerable This life shows a combination, usual only in the lives of great saints, of providential guidance with personal efiort, of sustained singleness of human purpose with absolute conformity to the Divine will, of self-diffidence the most utter with courage the most heroic. One has only to read the following pages with an open mind to marvel at the wondrous way in which Margaret Bourgeoys was guided by an all-ordering Providence into the great work of her life, and to admire the promptness with which she seized on every intimation of God's wishes. From the early age of twelve, circumstances intro duced her to the responsibility and devotedness of that teaching profession which was to be her life long passion. As soon as she had grown to full womanhood, the precocious piety of her childhood developed into a longing for the contemplative life. She tried to be a Carmelite, but was not accepted. The Holy Ghost often breathes such ineffectual yearnings into the souls of those whom He destines to a life of great activity, in order that they may be rooted and confirmed in prayerful union with Him and thus ever preserve, amid the cares anddistractions of their busy lives, the deepest interior recollection.
