Brother Lawrence was a 17th century monk who specialised in being close to God in the everyday. His writings are a source of inspiration to countless busy people today.
The time of business does not with me differ
from the time of prayer, and in the noise
and clatter of my kitchen, while several
personas are at the same time calling for
different things, I possess God in as great
tranquillity as if I were upon my knees at
the blessed sacrament.
