I Love This Video. Your words are Very Edifying to me Spiritually by God's grace.
May God Bless ❤️
I'm glad that you liked it! God bless you too!
Whenever I am outside and it is cold, I thank God that I will get to return home and become warm again. I like to think of this as foretaste of the relief of fully returning to God's presence in heaven.
Beautiful idea, thanks for sharing!
I thank God every day for protecting me from all the bad drivers on the road and for giving me such a good opportunity to practice patience. And for green lights!
Hahahah thank you for sharing!
Adding various "praises" and "thanks" to God throughout the day is a good starting point. Many of us take for granted the myriad of modern conveniences such as instant access to water, food, shelter, heat, AC, toilets, transport, etc, etc. that people 100- 200 years ago would have thought miracles. In many ways we are very blessed and those blessing are there for us to grow even greater in our wisdom and experience of God. Reading or memorizing some of the Psalms also helps put us in that attitude of praise and thanks. Just look at how rich the last 5 Psalms (145-150) are in that Praise genre. Also i think in one of them King David states: "Your praise will be continually on my lips" and "Seven times each day I will stop and give you praise".
Great idea, thank you for sharing!
I'm part way through this one, but I'm really enjoying the early chapters encouraging you to just hand things over to God's providence, and to find holy moments in even the most mundane aspects of our life. It's so easy to fall into a pattern of haranguing yourself over sin or to make a hierarchy out of your own life where some things are holy and others are profane. In reality, we can trust God to deliver us out of things in his own timing and always be close to him even if we're washing dishes. I think these types of writings unlock the humble Christian joy that I've been seeking in my faith and wish to express to people.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful perspective!
Have you read 'The Little Way' by St. Therese of Lisieux?
@@tco13v by her? As far as I know she only wrote the Story of a Soul
@@BiblicalBookworm You're right, I made a mistake, full title- 'The Little Way of Spiritual Childhood' is by Rev. G. Martin, oops, sorry 😅
As often as I remember I always make sure to pray a Spiritual Communion , it always helps me to be assured of God's presence interiorly and exteriorly 🕊🙏🕊
I converse with Him and listen attentively like talking to a dear friend; always listening to the inward witness. Stay away from things that defile my mind, thoughts, soul.
thank you for your review! i saw someone recommend this book under a pinterest post and was curious about it.
every day, i take the bus to class. during that one-hour trip, i take the time to appreciate our lord's creation. i see the beach and the beautiful sea, the clouds drifting by, and the trees that change with each season. all these things make me immensely thankful for the lord, and i pray to never lose the ability to see light and beauty when this world is filled with darkness. there can be light if we remain in him. god bless you!
Whenever someone at work says something abhorrent or gets angry I always speak in a loving way to our Lord.
I am caught up tonight with videos, I was working on getting my book ready, my Deacon is going to read it and possibly some Priests. I am ready to share and gain further insight. Pray for me Elisabeth, God bless.
I will pray for you, God bless you and your work!
That means a lot, and I still believe you have a unique thing going on here.
Just got my little Brother Lawrence book. I love it
I have to comment on what you said at 5:17 thank you God for giving us Elisabeth ❤
😊
Another great review Elisabeth! There is very much a place for 'simple' books as they often contain much wisdom that can be expressed in an uncomplicated way.
May I recount a story of God's beauty that I saw yesterday. Driving home from Church I saw a beautiful cloud formation that made me think of God as an artist. It certainly was something that made me praise God for His wonderful creation!
Once again thank you Elisabeth for what you do on this channel. May God continue to bless you! 🙂🙏
Thank you for sharing this beautiful thought!
You are most welcome!@@BiblicalBookworm
I've been following your channel for a while. Your videos are incredibly well done because it's so simple and straightforward. I love reading spiritual classics and collecting Catholic books too as a bookworm myself (the channel title drew me to subscribe many months ago). I will take time to read Brother Lawrence's book. I've had it in my files for a couple of years now. I agree with your review because I tried reading and felt the ideas weren't too new just like you mentioned. Keep sharing. God bless you
Thank you for your kind comment, I appreciate it! God bless you too!
@@BiblicalBookworm you are welcome. Amen.
Great book review Elizabeth, thank you for sharing God bless you 🙏
You're welcome, God bless you too!
@@BiblicalBookworm Thank you Elizabeth ☺️
Thank Elizabeth, I love your work. God bless you.
God bless you too! 😊🌷
This one of the best books I’ve ever read.
Thank you for sharing!
Hi Sister i learned this many years ago from Leanne Payne and i do it every day and i think it is a great benefit for me. hive a nice dag
Have a nice day too!
I love your reviews! They’re so enlightening. Thank you for this channel.
You are so welcome!
Good job Elisabeth, your voice is so soothing, I love listening to your videos and you have a beautiful smile especially when you were trying to pronounce discalced 😁 Keep it up!
Thank you hahahah 😊
Beautiful! This book is now on my list
Hope you'll enjoy it! 😊
St-Pio was encouraging others to never leave God presence.
🙏
I had similar experiences reading this book. I think that the spiritual life is a progression in development and growth, and in the early days we need milk and honey and victuals suited to our temperament, but having once got some strength and maturity and begun to advance, even partially, we need the harder food to sustain growth and challenge and nourish continued development. Not that we can't benefit from taking a step back to reread or meditate upon the truths which inflamed our young early faith, but that we cannot remain there lest we falter in our maturation and stagnate. A little book I find useful is "Trustful Surrender to Divine Providence" published by TAN. It always does me great good.
Wonderful channel of yours! Keep up the good work.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
Thanks for your review, Elisabeth. To love God, one needs to know Him. To know Him, one needs to learn from Him. The best way to learn from Him is to converse with Him habitually or constantly. I may take this "little way".
🙏
thank you for your video. I'm sure you have a backlog of reading you may never get to, but allow me to add to it: 'Satan' by Father Bruno de Jesus-Marie, I've heard, is a unique find. It isn't the cheapest book you'll ever buy, as far as the original publishing. I haven't pulled the trigger on purchasing it and have not read it. Amazon currently has a pre-order for what appears to be a re-publish, titled 'Satan: The Tempters Existence in the World and Nature', which is affordably priced. Currently, I'm flipping through Fr. Bruno de Jesus Marie's 'Conflict and Light' (not widely available, but affordable). I'm new to coming across your channel and have a current focus in 'spiritual warfare', which is the subject of the aforementioned reads. what you do is appreciated. keep up the interesting work.
Thank you for the recommendations!
Thanks! Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
Thanks a lot for your support! 😊🌹
I have not read this book yet but it has been on my list to read. Like you I had heard of the ideas, and ever since I had heard of the ideas I have tried to do just that, a constant conversation with God. Perhaps i should take it off my list since you did not give it a wonderful review. But it is short enough, so who knows, maybe. Thank you. Your review was very helpful!
If it sounds interesting for you read it!
It’s a great book - also recommend A Testament of Devotion by Thomas Kelly and Letters of a Modern Mystic by Frank Laubach. In the spiritual life can we advance beyond Brother Lawrence?
Thank you for the recommendations!
Way of the pilgrim book would be the Orthodox view of praying without ceasing
Thank you for sharing!
After reading this most people will want to pray at all times. Enjoy.. The Four Last Things
Death
Judgment
Hell
Heaven
Fr. Martin von Cochem, O.S.E.C.
The presence of God: Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC) para 2666 & 2668 “simplest way of praying, always.”
The invocation of the holy name of Jesus is a great idea, thanks for sharing!
I've always been a bit put off by the title of the book. It sounds more like a spiritual technique than a relationship. Perhaps after hearing this review I will know better though I am already a bit unenthusiastic about the use of the term "lay brother" at 1:17. The whole clergy-laity division is diametrically opposed to Christ's teaching and example of a non-hierarchical church structure of servant leadership. As opposed to a greedy, power grabbing prostitution with the world. The presence of Christ has flown when the Church of Christ becomes the whore of Babylon.
It helps me to know God by looking at Jesus. Jesus said, "If you have seen me, you have seen the Father." In Hebrew it reads, "Set your eyes upon Jesus the Author and Finisher of your faith."
How much do you read in a week?
Depends on how busy I am that week but on less busy weeks I read a book a week
You are pretty. Stay humble.
Ty jsi z Česka?
Ne, ale mluvím česky 🙃
@@BiblicalBookworm Ah, super!
"ClanG-ing" not "ClanJ-ing".
Thank you, I'll try to keep that in mind in the future!
@@BiblicalBookworm Soft "g:"s are typically followed by an "e". For example, "gage" versus "gag" or "George" versus "Greg".
outside the catholic church there is absolutely no salvation review when lol
