The Practice Of The Presence Of God

Brother Lawrence, a monk, who was part of the Carmelite monastry, lived in the early 1600's. He was known to have a deep, personal and an intimate fellowship with God. He wasn't a "famous" minister. He wasn't the head priest. His assignment was in the monastery's kitchen, to wash the dishes. But in that kitchen, Br. Lawrence communed with the Father. Did he have knowledge (spiritual and/or intellectual) like we think we have today. No, but who cares? What can replace the personal connection with the GOD of the Universe, our Father?

His close relationship was recorded in this classic:
