During his life, Francis de Sales had a gift for giving spiritual
direction to lay people living ordinary lives in the world. He
firmly believed that everyone could grow in holiness, even while
engaged in very active occupations, and his books and volumes of
letters addressing this need remain beloved works to this day. What
is the secret of their longstanding value? It is the intimacy and
at the same time practicality of the saint's direction -- for he
speaks to us person to person. We recognize ourselves in what is
said because he speaks of those things that each of us has
experienced.
This collection of maxims and sayings gathered from his many
pages of spiritual counsel are words of advice that every friend of
St. Francis has always been fond of repeating -- words that serve
as means of encouragement, points for meditation, counsels,
exhortations, reminders. For St. Francis speaks as clearly to our
twenty-first century condition as he did to that of his own
spiritual family.
