"Only one author, from the century in which she (Jeanne Guyon) lived, outsells her. His name is William Shakespeare. In fact they are the only two writers of the 1600s whose books are still very popular." Gene Edwards, 100 Days in the Secret Place
Jeanne spoke mostly about suffering and living abandoned to Christ. And she was speaking from experience. She was imprisoned numerous times and finally ended up in the Bastille because of Louis XIV's jealousy and hatred.
A quote from the reading today's poem was inspired by:
A thoughtful way to keep our focus amidst the noise of the busy world.
