The Instinct of Faith

"The Instinct of Faith is an elevation and enlargement of the heart above and beyond all that is presented to the senses.
The life of faith and the Instinct of Faith are one and the same.  It is an enjoyment of the goods of God, and a confidence founded on the expectation of His protection, making everything pleasant and received with a good grace.  It is indifference to, and at the same time place, state or person."
(John-Pierre de Caussade, SJ - SELF-ABANDONMENT TO DIVINE PROVIDENCE)

Complete Abandonment to Divine Providence generates Faith that overcomes the world.  The Faith that overcomes the world is the Faith that Always knows that God is Always in control.
