Lord of all pots and pans and things make me a saint by getting meals and washing up the plates!

Brother Lawrence

Let us fear to leave Him. Let us be always with Him. Let us live and die in His presence.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Always Dies Presence
Many things are possible for the person who has hope. Even more is possible for the person who has faith. And still more is possible for the person who knows how to love. But everything is possible for the person who practices all three virtues.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Hope Practice Three
If we are truly devoted to doing God’s will, pain and pleasure won’t make any difference to us.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Differences Pain Pleasure
The most holy and necessary practice in our spiritual life is the presence of God. That means finding constant pleasure in His divine company, speaking humbly and lovingly with him in all seasons, at every moment, without limiting the conversation in any way.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Mean Practice Spiritual
Good when He gives, supremely good; Nor less when He denies: Afflictions, from His sovereign hand, Are blessings in disguise.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Blessing Giving Hands
We ought to act with God in the greatest simplicity, speak to Him frankly and plainly, and implore His assistance in our affairs.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Prayer Simplicity Speak
God as we ought to worship Him. God is Spirit, so we must worship Him in spirit and truth, that is, by a humble and true adoration of spirit in the depth and center of our souls.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Depth Humble Soul
God always gave us light in our doubts, when we had no other design but to please Him.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Design Doubt Light
There is not in the world a kind of life more sweet and delightful, than that of a continual conversation with God; those only can comprehend it who practice and experience it.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Practice Prayer Sweet
We can do little things for God; I turn the cake that is frying on the pan for love of him, and that done, if there is nothing else to call me, I prostrate myself in worship before him, who has given me grace to work; afterwards I rise happier than a king.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Cake Grace Kings
Do not always scrupulously confine yourself to certain rules, or particular forms of devotion, but act with a general confidence in GOD, with love and humility.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Devotion Humility Worship
It is not the greatness of the work which matters to God but the love with which it is done.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Done God Greatness
Lift up your hearts to Him, sometimes even at your meals, and when you are in company; the least little remembrance will always be acceptable to Him. You need not cry very loud; He is nearer to us than we are aware.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Heart Prayer Remembrance
Our only business is to love and delight ourselves in God.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Delight Love Ourselves
Are we not rude and deserve blame, if we leave Him alone, to busy ourselves about trifles, which do not please Him and perhaps offend Him? ‘Tis to be feared these trifles will one day cost us dear.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Cost Day One Rude
It matters not to me what I do, or what I suffer, so long as I abide loveingly united to God’s will – that is my whole business.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Long Matter Suffering
