"Practicing the Presence of God" is a not a book by Brother
Lawrence in the usual sense. Rather, it is a compilation by Joseph
de Beaufort, one of Lawrence's contemporaries. In the first volume
Beaufort recalls four conversations he had with Brother Lawrence.
The second volume, contains parts of fifteen letters written by
Lawrence, each which Beaufort introduces with notes on its context.
Beaufort's first person narration throughout can be confusing to
new readers, but this minor awkwardness has not prevented the book
from joining the ranks of the most celebrated Christian classics,
nor its timeless message from transforming hearts. Themes you will
find include the devotion to unceasing prayer, the fusion of the
ordinary and the spiritual, the simplicity of walking with God, and
the necessity of trusting God to enjoy peace with Him and in all
our circumstances. This book has benefitted over ten generations of
ordinary and outstanding people from every path. It is easy to
understand, simple to apply and a source of joy and hope. May God
bless your reading.
