Brother Lawrence was a humble man who followed the direct path to prayer, communion with God. For him there was no distinction between a time of business and a time of worship. He was able to practice the presence of God whether he was working in his kitchen or worshipping in his church. This little record of the mind and heart of a man who saw God in all things is meant to serve as an inspiration and guide for all those who seek true and constant communication with their Creator. Complete and unabridged. Translated from the French.
