About this listen
The Practice of the Presence of God is a short but powerful book that tells of how Brother Lawrence (c. 1614 - 1691) lived a life in the presence of God. Janet and Bridgett begin to unpack what this really meant for Brother Lawrence, but, more importantly, what it can mean for us today. Brother Lawrence has found a way to live out 1 Thessalonians 5: 16-18 "Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." We can too!
Baby Step: Take a step towards practicing the presence of God and pray this prayer from Brother Lawrence, "O my God, since Thou are with me, and I must now, in obedience to Thy commands, apply my mind to these outward things, I beseech Thee, grant me the grace to continue in They Presence; and to this end do Thou prosper me with Thy assistance, receive all my works and pssess all my affections." (The Practice of the Presence of God, Conversation 4).
