Bro. Lawrence Part III

       Brother Lawrence in these four letters tells about his lifestyle which to me seems unattainable. He says that he strives to be consciously with God in all moments of every day, which seems to me to be an unattainable goal. We will always wander in our minds, and if we try and always keep our minds focused on God, we will bring ourselves down in discouragement. We talked in class of the analogy of sitting in a room with someone- even if you and said other person are doing different things, and you're not thinking about being with them, you are still spending time together. We are always sitting in the room with God, and we should be aware of that, and try to think about it, but having it be the sole thought in our minds does not seem right to me. It begs the question to what extent do we keep our minds on God.
