Sinopsis

&ldquo,The Practice of the Presence of God&rdquo, is a compilation of letters and records of conversations with 17th-century Carmelite monk Brother Lawrence compiled by his contemporary, Father Joseph de Beaufort. An influential work of Christian spirituality &ldquo,The Practice&rdquo, describes Brother Lawrence&rsquo,s philosophy that a relationship with God is more important than the service and work done in God&rsquo,s name. Brother Lawrence focuses on seeing the love of God, his presence, in all aspects of daily life. In this short work an attempt is made to explain Lawrence&rsquo,s method of acquiring this presence of God. According to Brother Lawrence it is only in acquiring this presence that one truly can have a relationship with God. Also included in this work is &ldquo,The Spiritual Maxims&rdquo,, a collection of thoughts intended to give daily inspiration and guidance towards living a more spiritual life. Together these classic works of Christian devotion give great insight into the life and spiritual philosophy of Brother Lawrence. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.
