Wisdom from Fr. Donald Haggerty

 
 
 

The idea that contemplation could be at one’s personal disposal and available on demand is an obvious misconception. The only proper expectation is that the soul’s yearning to love God has come from God and cannot be fruitless.

—Fr. Donald Haggerty

from his book The Contemplative Hunger

SURRENDER TO GOD

Offering an abundance of insights into the value of silence, deep faith, trust, and interior surrender to God, Father Haggerty also illumines the link between contemplation and love for poverty and the poor, and makes a strong appeal to the importance of prayer as the primary answer to the crisis of faith that afflicts so many people today.
