"Remember kind actions - more than anything else - cause the soul to shine with brilliance." --Gertrude the Great Discover the strength, wisdom, and joyful faith of Christianity's legendary women -... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I was given this book for my birthday last year. Now I can not imagine starting my day without it. I've given it as gifts, no one has yet shown disappointment. The words of wisdom take my Spiritual journey deeper, help spark things I would/could not have thought of. These women have left footprints for me to follow and keys to unlock doors to my soul. A great read if you are ready or just willing to look a little deeper.
Can't Get Enough of a Good Thing
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This re-released compilation of medieval women mystic contemplations is filled with the kindness and generous living that every heart finds itself thirsty for. I have worn my first copy into a shredded mess of loose pages and bent covers. This collection continues to speak to the reader, inspiring and digging into one's soul anew with every reading. Butcher's brilliant translation makes these words of wisdom timeless, relevant, and touching. "A Little Daily Wisdom" never ceases to provide a deeper understanding of the romance available to every woman's heart through the Love of Christ.
Timeless Treasure

I highly recommend this lovely book!
