Format:Paperback
Other than the Bible, this book has had the greatest influence upon my life! I began reading Brother Lawrence's book about twenty years ago and was thrilled to find this version ten years later which combines his experience with that of Frank Laubach's. This simple but profound message of being God's friend has taken years to sink into my heart but has become more precious with each passing year. If you are hungry to know God more intimately, this is the book for you!

This book is my most important book after the Holy Bible because it teaches a person to put into practice to be Holy.

This book was recommended by a friend 33 years ago. He said he read it once a year. I also got into the same habit, snd enjoyed it each time. Now was finally time for a new copy.
