The Practice of the Presence of God: With Spiritual Maxims, Paperback

Descriere

A Christian classic on cultivating intimacy with God through life's everyday tasks. This enduring classic of devotion consists of the letters and recorded conversations of a simple seventeenth-century lay brother who, through the most ordinary of activities, was able to achieve a profound intimacy with God. At any moment and in any circumstance, he taught, we can ""practice the presence of God""--by thinking on Him, loving Him, and offering up our daily tasks as acts of worship. This volume also includes Brother Lawrence's ""Spiritual Maxims,"" a summary of his teachings in the form of short aphorisms and sayings.
