-Brother Lawrence (1611-1691)
-Born Nicholas Herman in Lorraine, France, Brother Lawrence received little formal education and as a young man served briefly in the army.  One day, he had an experience that set the course of his life in a new direction.  Gazing at a barren tree in winter, Lawrence saw for the first time the majesty of God's grace and the constancy of God's providence.  He imagined himself like the tree, waiting for the life that God would inevitably bring in season.  Shortly after this experience, he became a lay brother in the Carmelite monastery in Paris.  there he worked in the kitchen and, in the repetition of this daily chores, found a way to integrate spirituality and work, which he called the "practice of the presence of God." By learning to perform his daily, mundane tasks for the sake of God, Brother Lawrence turned every moment into an opportunity for prayer.

-Brother Lawrence wrote, "Men invent means and methods of coming at God's love, they learn rules and set up devices to remind them of that love, and it seems like a world of trouble to bring oneself into the consciousness of God's presence.  Yet it might be so simple.  It is not quicker and easier just to do our common business wholly for the love of him?"

 Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.
 Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.

 Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil,
 for thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever.
 Amen.
-===Closing Prayer===
