Through Wind and Waves: On Being a Spiritual Guide

Through Wind and Waves: On Being a Spiritual Guide

A guide is a welcome addition on most any journey. So it is with the greatest of all journeys: the journey to God. One of the Church's most long-standing and fruitful traditions, spiritual direction is an instrument of God's glory in the world. The act of clearing the way for the Holy Spirit is a delicate yet challenging matter, and one that requires humility, patience, and charity, among other virtues. Through Wind and Waves is a guidebook for those undertaking this important work. It offers wisdom for both the supernatural and the practical elements of spiritual direction. It shows that being a spiritual guide is not simply a matter of prayer and meditation, but one of a firm interior life, genuine friendship, and the daily realities of living one's life for the Lord. That life will be marked by adventure, since every soul is unique and is led by the Spirit to blaze new paths to holiness. Filled with wisdom from the saints, as well as Jesus' words in the Gospels, Through Wind and Waves is a valuable resource for those called to lead others into the safe harbor of God's love. Rev. Francis FernÃ¡ndez-Carvajal holds graduate degrees in both History and Canon Law. Ordained in 1964, he is a priest of the Opus Dei Prelature and the author of many popular spiritual works. His seven-volume series In Conversation with God provides over 500 meditations to be used throughout the liturgical year. It has sold over 2 million copies and has been translated into many languages.
