This is a beautiful book, with short daily meditations that essentially guide you through the various levels of intimacy with Christ (purgative, illuminative, unitive) to help make progress in the spiritual life. Both challenging and consoling. Highly recommend.

My Daily Bread Book
This has been a wonderful part of my prayer life for decades. It helps lead you down the path to holiness. When I finish, I admit I am nowhere near there so start over again. It provides such profound direction in my life on a daily basis. I read a chapter a day at the beginning of my day. I was so happy to find the larger version with the leatherette cover. They make wonderful gifts also! Our adult children still have them from their teenage years and use read them often.

This book changed my life, late in life.
I was given this book in elementary school. But I only first opened it in my old age. It has changed every aspect of my existence. Now I feel Joy that was absent in my youth. And I've accepted God's Grace to change for the better. I've been giving copies to those who have witnessed my changed life.
