First serving as a soldier, then as a footman, he entered the Carmelite Order in Paris as a lay brother at the age of 55, where he became a cook and immersed himself in the devotional life. For him there was no distinction between 'the time of business' and 'the time of prayer'. He died in 1691 at 80 years of age, honoured by all who knew him.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oneworld Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781851686407\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 120\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.36lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.92h x 6.48w x 0.32d","brand":"Brother Lawrence","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52873233957045,"sku":"9781851686407","price":12.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-practice-of-the-presence-of-god-conversations-and-letters-of-brother-lawrence-9781851686407","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
