This Book of Meditations is a classic and is seeped in Carmelite spirituality. For every day it offers two meditations, in liturgical arrangement, that enable the soul to enter the conscious presence of God and to reflect on the theme of the day. These are followed by a ‘Colloquy’ that helps the person at prayer to start a friendly conversation with God where acts of praise and love, petition and thanksgiving are made, together with good resolutions for the future. Here we are at the very heart of prayer, which is a heart-to-heart encounter in faith with the living God.
Divine Intimacy is the highest state attainable on earth. In this union of love, the soul produces acts of love which have an immense apostolic influence on a multitude of souls. This knowledge of the ways that lead to God, according to the teaching of the renowned Spanish mystics, is distilled into the pages of this book.
About the Author:
Father Gabriel of St. Mary Magdalen, O.C.D., was a Discalced Carmelite priest who became one of the most revered masters of the spiritual life. He acquired a vast knowledge of the ways that lead to holiness and to union with God. His experience with souls, whom he guided to the heights of perfection, was outstanding. He was an expert in the spiritual and mystical doctrine of St. Teresa of Jesus (Avila) and of St. John of the Cross. The Discalced Carmelite nuns of the Monastery of St. Joseph in Rome were the heirs of the Father Gabriel’s vast output of published works and private manuscripts. For ten years, he guided these nuns as their confessor and spiritual director, and it was they who helped him to arrange his material in line with the course of the liturgical year, while following the ascent of the soul to transforming union with God, or to ‘Divine Intimacy.’

Divine Intimacy has been a long time treasured companion of mine alongside my Bible. I have sought its wisdom for many years and am grateful to have found this flexible leather bound volume here. I was in need as my original copy stays at home and my paperback travel copy is literally falling apart. I have used it well and will break in this newly purchased copy in its place. All that is good, true and beautiful is found in Fr. Gabriel’s Divine Intimacy and should be in the Spiritual Library of one journeying along the path of holiness, desiring deeper relationship with the Lord.
Thank you House of Joppa… may God in all His goodness continue to pour out His grace, blessing and healing upon you+
This book is beautiful and has deepened my spiritual life in just a short time. Highly recommend
This is a wonderful book for going deeper into meditative prayer. I've only been using it for a few days, but it has already impacted by prayer time. Thank you for making this publication available.
My favorite book I have ever ordered. The daily meditations just seem to touch me deeply where I am at. I am healing inside as I go through the daily readings. The Holy Spirit really is speaking to me through this book. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. So needed in my life- I lost my only sister in June. So difficult.
