The Practice of the Presence of God. - Tapa blanda

THE PRACTICE OF THE PRESENCE OF GOD is one of the most enduring spiritual classics of all time. It is a collection of letters from and conversations with Brother Lawrence. As reviewers of THE PRACTICE OF THE PRESENCE OF GOD have stated, it "has opened up the personal interconnections within the movement as never before." An unparalleled classic, for 300 years THE PRACTICE OF THE PRESENCE OF GOD has given both blessing and instruction to those who can be content with nothing less than knowing God in all His majesty and feeling His loving presence throughout each simple day.

Brother Lawrence was a humble layman who served as a cook at a monastic community in 17th century France. Although he never advanced beyond being the cook at the community, he developed the unique gift of being able to pray incessantly with God throughout the entire day, even during his work.
