After being wounded in the Thirty Years War, Brother Lawrence became a monk in France and began to write about experiencing the presence of God. In his monastery, Brother Lawrence served God daily through his humble deeds thoughts.
Brother Lawrence believed that it was always possible for one to feel the presence of God and taught methods to help those who sought it.
Brother Lawrence's works have been popular for hundreds of years because he learned to live genuinely in the presence of the Lord and was able to share his experience in an accessible way with other believers.
