Excerpt from Letters of Spiritual Counsel and Guidance These Letters form no part of Keble's General Correspondence, which yet re mains to be published. Materials for it had been collected, and the work begun by a far more competent Editor; but, when he was called to fill the place of one whose memory will long be held in affectionate veneration, not only in his own diocese, but throughout the Church of England, Dr. Moberly felt that the calls upon his time and thoughts would be too weighty and manifold to allow of his continuing the work. At the request of the Keble family, it was undertaken by the present Editor, and the Letters, then in Dr. Moberly's possession, were, with the consent of those who had furnished them, transferred to his hands.

Excerpt from Lectures on Great Men HE who has been enabled to see, even dimly, a world of Beauty and of Joy which his brethren do not seem to see, and to feel heaven - descended influences which his brethren do not seem to feel, - such an one cannot be happy to enjoy these things alone. To live in luxury while his brother is dying of want, to enjoy the light while those around him, though having eyes as he, yet see not, - there is no resting-place here for the ear nest Christian Man. So spake, in 1840, the revered frederic myers, when inaugurating plans he had formed for the spiritual education of his Parish. These words reveal the animating Spirit of his noble efforts, of which these Lectures are remains. He lived as one who felt that his Master's mission was his, to go about teaching truth and doing good. The works of a man's love are his works indeed, and of these Lectures it may be emphatically affirmed, they were the works of the Author's love. His heart glows in every page, witnessing his vivid sympathy with the subject of his discourse. He wrought out the strong conviction he felt, that the Clergyman of a Parish should be its Educator, as well as Spiritual Guide - that the vast portion of most men's time allowed to run to waste.

The spirit is very near. Only turn, ask, and listen. When her first book of guidance, Turning, was published anonymously in 1994, many readers responded gratefully to its message. It quickly became one of those "secret" books of consolation that is passed from heart to heart. In Becoming, a treasury of meditations "received in the soul," Claire Blatchford leads us more deeply into a way of spiritual trust and confidence and will be a further source of growth and renewal for many in times of need. Becoming is a wonderful gift for yourself or for a friend in need of inspiration and courage in life.
