-- Brother Lawrence
Revised and Rewritten by Harold J. Chadwick
Letters and conversations of a humble man who walked constantly in the presence of God
Millions have learned to live in the presence of God through this simple book, written by a humble monastery cook. Published first in French in 1692, The Practice of the Presence of God is a classic for everyone who has a heart that is hungry for more of God - whose "souls thirsts for God, for the living God."
Brother Lawrence was a man of humble beginings who discovered the greatest secret of living in the Kingdom of God here on earth. It is the art of "practicing the presence of God in one single act that does not end." He often stated that it is God who paints Himself in the depths of our soul. We must merely open our hearts to receive Him and His loving presence.
As a humble cook, Brother Lawrence learned an important lesson through each daily chore: The time he spent in communion with the Lord should be the same, whether he was bustling around the kitchen or on his knees in prayer. He learned to cultivate the deep presence of God so thoroughly in his own heart that he was able to joyfully exclaim, "I am doing now what I will do for all eternity. I am blessing God, praising Him, adoring Him, and loving Him with all my heart."
This Pure Gold Classic version of The Practice of the Presence of God contains writings of Brother Lawrence not normally found in other versions, and important new features.
