Book Reviews of The Practice of the Presence of God
Book Review: An astonishingly simple--yet powerful--book
Summary: 5 Stars
THE PRACTICE OF THE PRESENCE OF GOD is astonishingly simple, yet every page patiently and freshly points to BROTHER LAWRENCE's one passion, the continuous practice of the presence of God. All we have to do is to recognize God as being intimately present with us. Then we may speak directly to Him every time we need to ask for help, to know His will in moments of uncertainty, and to do whatever He wants us to do in a way that pleases Him. THE PRACTICE OF THE PRESENCE OF GOD teaches that we should offer our work to God before we begin, and thank Him afterward for the privilege of having done them for His sake. This continuous conversation would also include praising and loving God incessantly for His infinite goodness and perfection.
