Brother Lawrence Love Quotations

Men invent means and methods of coming at God's love, they learn rules and set up devices to remind them of that love, and it seems like a world of trouble to bring oneself into the consciousness of God's presence. Yet it might be so simple. Is it not quicker and easier just to do our common business wholly for the love of him?

It is enough for me to pick up but a straw from the ground for the love of God.

It is not necessary to have great things to do. I turn my little omelet in the pan for the love of God.

Love sweetens pain; and when one loves God, one suffers for His sake with joy and courage.

I did not pray for any relief, but I prayed for strength to suffer with courage, humility and love.
