review: Editorial Reviews From the Back Cover These four saints received messages from Jesus that are of inestimable value to Christians seeking holiness. When the faithful meditate devoutly upon these locutions, and with God’s grace, apply the wisdom found therein to their daily lives, great fruit is sure to follow. -FROM THE INTRODUCTION Words of Hope recounts the words of Christ spoken to four great saints—Saint Gertrude the Great, Saint Catherine of Genoa, Saint Teresa of Avila, and Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque—who dared to receive the eternal message of Our Lord. They lovingly and faithfully listened to His message, repeated through the centuries. It is a message of suffering, and yet it is overflowing with hope. Through the words these four holy souls received, we can see Christ’s message of peace and hope born out of suffering written anew. Through these intimate words of Jesus and the example of the saints within these pages, the reader will be renewed and rejuvenated with the hope and comfort of Christ in times of suffering.
