This episode features Spiritual Maxims 5 and 6, we look at the framework established by Brother Lawrence regarding how we can draw closer to God in our daily lives. We also hear the conclusion of a cliffhanger left from the last episode, examining the crucial means by which we can attain the divine presence of God in each moment.
First and foremost, Brother Lawrence emphasizes the importance of leading a life of great purity. Furthermore, it's vital to embrace humility when we falter, seeking forgiveness sincerely and promptly. The second maxim insists on the necessity of fixing one's soul’s gaze on God through unwavering faith.
Providing a practical outline, Brother Lawrence introduces essential practices for cultivating a habit of looking towards God. This includes engaging in spontaneous prayers that connect one’s heart to the divine before embarking on daily tasks. Br. Lawrence reminds us of the need for patience in this spiritual endeavor; established habits take time and practice to develop. He highlights that despite initial difficulties, the joy and significant spiritual transformation that follows make the practice worthwhile.
