Publisher's Synopsis
Brother Lawrence was born in 1610 in France. He was injured in the Thirty Years War and remained crippled for the remainder of his life. He entered a monastery in middle life and become the cook. "In this small book, through letters and conversations, Brother Lawrence simply and beautifully explains how to continually walk with God - not from the head but from the heart. Brother Lawrence left the gift of a way of life available to anyone who seeks to know God's peace and presence; that anyone, regardless of age or circumstance, can practice -anywhere, anytime. Brother Lawrence also left the gift of a direct approach to living in God's presence that is as practical today as it was three hundred years ago."
