The world appears very little to a soul that contemplates the greatness of God.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Greatness Soul World
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
In order to form a habit of conversing with GOD continually, and referring all we do to Him, we must at first apply to Him with some diligence: but that after a little care we should find His love inwardly excite us to it without any difficulty.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Care Littles Order
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
I desire only Him and to be wholly His.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Our only business is to love and delight ourselves in God.

Delight Love Ourselves
That there needed neither art nor science for going to GOD, but only a heart resolutely determined to apply itself to nothing but Him, or for His sake, and to love Him only.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Art Determine Sake
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

What can God have that gives him greater satisfaction than that a thousand times a day all his creatures should thus pause to withdraw and worship him in the heart.

Christian Giving Heart
The time of business does not differ with me from the time of prayer; and in the noise and clatter of my kitchen, while several persons are at the same time calling for different things, I possess God in as great tranquility as if I were on my knees.

That all things are possible to him who believes, that they are less difficult to him who hopes, they are more easy to him who loves, and still more easy to him who perseveres in the practice of these three virtues.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Believe Practice Three
I drove away from my mind everything capable of spoiling the sense of the presence of God…. I just make it my business to persevere in His holy presence… My soul has had an habitual, silent, secret conversation with God.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Prayer Secret Soul
To worship God is to admit that we are entirely contrary to Him, and that He is willing to make us like Himself.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

God Willing Worship Music
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
Do not forget Him but think on Him often. Adore Him continually. Live and die with Him. This is the glorious work of a Christian; in a word, this is our profession. If we do not know it, we must learn it.
BROTHER LAWRENCE

Christian Forget Thinking
Good when He gives, supremely good; Nor less when He denies: Afflictions, from His sovereign hand, Are blessings in disguise.
