THE PRACTICE OF THE PRESENCE OF GOD by Brother Lawrence

Brother Lawrence was a cook in a monastery who discovered that washing dishes could be as sacred as kneeling in prayer, if you brought the same quality of attention to both. His simple practice of remaining constantly aware of God's presence transformed his interior life from anxiety and restlessness into profound and unshakeable peace. Written in the 17th century and still as fresh and relevant as the morning. For any reader whose mind will not be still, Brother Lawrence offers the most practical and beautiful solution ever written.
