Consolations offered by secular media are fleeting. Food, fashions and fantasy line the sinuous path to "nowhere". Empty promises of tranquility are merely fragile moments of complacency. Disappointment leaves us feeling spiritually ill.
The Sacraments, "instituted by Christ to give grace", are impervious shields for the souls of those who persevere. Archbishop Fulton Sheen's classic work, Peace of Soul is elegant and deeply thought provoking. This collection of humble answers eclipses any tower of spurious panaceas. Fulton Sheen's classic work, Peace of Soul, can be purchased @ Catholic Company.
"Jesus~my rest and tranquility
Jesus~my peace my sweetness..."
from the Prayer of Saint Bonaventure
