At first sight, the word “abandonment” would seem to suggest something undesirable: the utter abdication of one’s dignity as a man and the lowering of oneself to the level of a mere irresponsible automaton. Abandonment, as here understood, holy abandonment has nothing whatever in common with fatalistic passivity. Instead of renunciation, it calls for the most active and uninterrupted exercise of our multifarious energies. Holy abandonment means the constant, complete, and loving union of our wills with the will of God in such sort that “we do nothing but what He wills and as He wills, and will nothing but what He does.” It means perfect obedience to the commands, counsels, inspirations of His signified will, perfect conformity to the decrees of His good pleasure.
