Nine Days to Welcome Peace

Often in our walk with Jesus its not the volume of information but the quality. I stayed with each meditation for more that one day. I wanted each one to sink in as much as possible. I also wanted to try to memorize each scripture. I got a fair amount. Its been a couple months since I went thru the book. At this time I go back to it for a "refresher".The battle isn't over until He calls us home.Thank you Fr. Jaques!PS All your books have been helpful. The,, Inner Peace book, made a very good companion to this one.

This little book of reflections repeats many of Fr. Philippe's themes: abandonment to God's will, trust in God, the sacrament of the present moment. Each day's reading took only a few minutes, but helped me slow down and focus on what might be preventing me from experiencing his peace in my life.

A great addition to my religious library

Great reflection

Excellent book! Wonderful way to start the day and to live in peace!

In keeping with Father Philippe's ever-gentle and consoling style, this little volume is a masterpiece. It's small but packed with nuggets of gold, and would take years to fully exhaust its beautiful meditations. This is definitely a book I'll return to many times. I felt as if Our Lord was speaking straight to my heart on each page. I highlighted so many passages that I might as well just have taken a yellow paintbrush to the whole thing! I've just ordered extra copies to give to friends. Thank you, Father Philippe, for yet another priceless treasure!

This book was left in a pew in church and I knew God had it there for me. I read it, returned it to the pew, then bought it. I choose different days depending on what God knows I need. The only part I didn't care for on page 72 was the word 'despise'. We've all been through alot but this word is not fitting, at least for me. May you find peace with the help of this book and total trust in God. Peace to all!

This is a greatly inspiring book. I sincerely recommend it. Thank you Father Phillippe . I will read more from you.
