I have quitted all forms of devotion and set prayers but those to which my state obliges me. And I make it my business only to persevere in His holy presence, wherein I keep myself by a simple attention, and a general fond regard to GOD, which I may call an actual presence of GOD, or, to speak better, an habitual, silent, and secret conversation of the soul with GOD, which often causes me joys and raptures inwardly, and sometimes also outwardly, so great that I am forced to use means to moderate them, and prevent their appearance to others.
Brother LawrenceTo worship God in truth is to recognize Him for being who He is, and to recognize ourselves for what we are.
Brother LawrenceThere's no greater lifestyle and no greater happiness than that of having a continual conversation with God.
