Riassunto

What story will you write on the remaining pages of your life?

That question -- simple, searching, and profound -- is at the heart of this luminous book by Cardinal Fernando Filoni. In My Days Are in Your Hands, one of the Church's leading shepherds walks you through the lives of great saints and biblical figures who answered that question by going all-in and giving everything they had.

You'll see in turning these pages that these are not distant heroes in stained glass. They are friends, witnesses, people who faced fear, doubt, and failure -- and who discovered, in the depths of their surrender to God, the greatest consolation the human heart can know.

Cardinal Filoni writes not as an armchair theologian but as a pastor who has seen, and lived, in the world. With the precision of a scholar and heart of a mystic, he opens up, among many others:

• The astonishing faith of Abraham -- and what it really means to trust God with the unknown
• Moses, "caressed by God," whose entire life foreshadowed Christ
• John the Baptist, the thunderclap, whose sacrificial life became an eternal proclamation
• Mary's tenacious presence with her children, especially in the world's darkest places
• The quiet moral greatness of Joseph, who left nothing undone for those in his care
• Mary Magdalene, whose life demonstrated that "the faith I prefer is hope"
• Peter, whose faith slowly incubated -- becoming the witness of Jesus in Rome
• Paul's untiring spiritual fatherhood, and the self-emptying love that drove him to the ends of the earth

Saint after saint, century after century, encountered Christ and fell wholeheartedly in love with Him. Their lives are not a museum exhibit -- they are an invitation.

My Days Are in Your Hands will not just inform you; it will stir something inside you. It will make you want to be the kind of person whose days, like theirs, are surrendered to the One who holds them in His hands.

Informazioni sull'autore

In this book on the spirituality of the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem, the Grand Master of the Order, Cardinal Fernando Filoni, reflects on the life, the beliefs, the values, and the choices of a Knight and Dame."It is the Order itself that gives primary importance to the vocation to holiness of its members and aspires to be an instrument of development and of deepening the spiritual progress of each and every person in the environment in which they live and practice their faith," writes Cardinal Filoni in the Introduction.Pope Francis, speaking to the members of this Pontifical Institution, encouraged them, "not to forget that the principal aim of your Order lies in the spiritual growth of its members. Therefore, any success of your initiatives cannot be separate from appropriate religious formation programmes addressed to every Knight and every Dame, so that they may consolidate their own indispensable relationship with the Lord Jesus, especially in prayer, in meditation on the Sacred Scriptures and in furthering their knowledge of the doctrine of the Church" ("Address to the Members of the Consulta of the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem," November 16, 2018).
