    About this audiobook

    A true story of Christian devotion and love, this classic shares how to find and enjoy the deep presence of God continually and profoundly.  Discovering the pure joy of a life spent in communion with God, Brother Lawrence’s realization inspired his Carmelite Brothers to seek instruction from him, despite his lowly status in the monastery power structure.  Students of thought and followers of Jesus will find words of comfort as they learn to be content with nothing less than knowing God and feeling His loving presence in every moment. “I am doing now what I will do for all eternity. I am blessing God, praising Him, adoring Him, and loving Him with all my heart.”
