"Powerful Proverbs of St. Ignatius of Loyola: One Year Journey With The Founder of the Jesuits" is a day by day progress in Ignatian spirituality written by an experienced Jesuit retreatant. It is a perfect ebook for Jesuits, of course, those familiar with St. Ignatius and those who have been on Ignatian retreats. “All for the greater glory of God” is the keystone quote from St. Ignatius, the founder of the Jesuits. It is often seen in Jesuit institutions in its Latin abbreviation, “A.D.M.J.” (Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam). It was mentioned 367 times in the Constitutions of the Jesuits. We are sharing quotes from St. Ignatius and will use them to pray and reflect every day of the year. Here's the first quote: “He employs his time badly who recites long prayers, when he should use it to conquer his passions.” Therefore, we will just use a simple, but deep quote from St. Ignatius, reflect upon it and quickly move onto our daily life. “One ought to speak little and hear much.” is another favorite from St. Ignatius. So, let us use few words in this year in following St. Ignatius, but rather our ears and mind to hear the Lord and reflect on what He wants from us during our year following in the footsteps of St. Ignatius. The author is a yearly retreatant in the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius. It is the author's hope to share more about St. Ignatius and to encourage the reader to find out more about the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius and take an Ignatian retreat as well.
