The Imitation of Christ
The second-most-read book after the Bible, by Thomas à Kempis, born near Düsseldorf, Rhineland (Germany) around 1380, and died in 1471, at Agnietenberg, near Zwolle, Bishopric of Utrecht (Netherlands).
The Blessed Virgin Mary, appearing as Our Lady of the Word, at Kibeho, Rwanda, in 1981-1982, told one of the visionaries to find a copy of this book open it to a random page, and plant the first words she read deeply into her heart (p. 50). The reader may act on Mary's directive by scrolling to a random page and start reading. The more this is done, the more words approved by Heaven may be planted within.
