This inspiring book gives you a splendid example of how to live as a Christian in a secular environment that can be indifferent or hostile to your Faith. For Elisabeth Leseur had two great loves God, and her husband Felix. Felix loved Elisabeth as well; yet to their mutual sorrow, he couldn’t share the life of the Spirit that Elisabeth cherished.
Occasionally the happiness of their life together in upper-class Parisian society was shattered by Felix’s frustration and impatience. How could such an intelligent woman waste her time, as he saw it, with ignorant superstitions? Sometimes he and his friends would even ridicule and mock her faith.
But Elisabeth loved Felix too much to allow their home to degenerate into an emotional war zone. She realized that confrontations and arguments were useless; she chose instead to keep quiet and pray for Felix. In her secret diary, she recorded how she used his efforts to destroy her faith as means to grow in love for him and for God.
Throughout their life together, it grieved Elisabeth to think that Felix might be separated from her for all eternity because of his rejection of God. For her, life in Heaven wouldn’t be happy without him. Yet when she died prematurely, Felix was still an unbeliever.
The story doesn’t end there. When Felix found this diary, he discovered how Elisabeth’s whole life bore witness to the truth of the God she loved.
In time, Felix was transformed by the diary and his memories of Elisabeth. He became a Christian and, later, a priest. Now she may even be declared a saint. Elisabeth’s diary and spiritual writings (all included in this one volume) map out for you a path to marital harmony and greater love for God — especially if you love someone who stands outside the Faith. Let Elisabeth’s two great loves, and her faith and perseverance, inspire you now.

Secret Diary of Elisabeth Leseur edition by Elisabeth Leseur Religion Spirituality eBooks Reviews
Very beautiful and poetic writing. I find it inspiring. Good reading to draw one nearer to God and reflect on how all our actions and thoughts should be made for His glory....even if not noticed by others.
Really overpriced. This woman was definitely holy but I just don't care for how her husband comes across, before and after his conversion. Maybe just me.
There are many excellent books written about Catholic Christian spirituality by saints who were priests, monks or religious sisters. "The Secret Diary of Elisabeth Leseur" is unique because it is the spiritual diary writings of a married woman. There are many married women today seeking holiness in their lives as wives and mothers. This is a book for them! They will find profound and useful spiritual direction in the words of Elisabeth Leseur, whose love for God gave her a steadfast, faithful and fruitful love for her husband. I can't recommend this book highly enough to women who are seeking holiness in their vocation of marriage.
A very deep, thoughful, inspiring book. It dives deep into a soul in love with God. I highly recommend this book especially if you’re suffering in a difficult relationship with your spouse. She learned, by God’s grace, to offer herself completely to God to convert her husband. This book takes you through all her sacrifices & penances. Beautiful & inspiring.
I can not say enough good things about this book. Elizabeth seems like the woman friend that I've never had. She's a real person, with all the faults and foibles that come with that condition, yet she manages to become a truly great example of what it means to live as a Christian. Can't wait to get to heaven (with the help of this book) so I can meet the author in person!
An autobiographical treasure that reveals a life lived so sweet and simply for the goodness and benefit of others that literally changed lives through the sacrifices and sufferings which Elizabeth Leseur offered up. Her practical admonitions are simple but certainly require Grace to be lived out!
The prologue by her spouse is as much a treasure to read as her own work. It is a true life story that paints a picture of love lived out to the fullest!
I love this book.. I have read it once, but decided to read it again.. The second time around has even caught my deeper attention stronger than the first time I read it.
.
I am so amazed at what deep love and faith Elisabeth Leseur grew into as she continued her prayers and asking God for greater faith, love and humility.
Her writings have given me greater courage to act upon my own faith, and trust deeper in God for all that I think I need, and what I truly need as He knows it. Also, to rely on Him for my future regardless of how it turns out.
I've discovered even more deeply, by reading this book, that God is truly faithful and when things don't go the way I think they should go, that I can trust that it is His divine Will, and I can relax in peace knowing that.
If someone is longing for a deeper faith journey, I strongly recommend this book.
If someone is an atheist or agnostic, I strongly encourage them to read this book. And let God draw them to Himself as He so longs to do.
A+++++ rating... PERFECT SCORE!!!
I will recommend it to anyone...in fact, I bought a copy for one of my daughters and will for others too.
A fabulous story... a great message of faith, hope, love, and trust in God....
BUY IT TODAY!!!!
