“I found Him when I took leave of all creatures. I found Him in my inmost heart. When I am silent with men I am able to converse with God and with Him I always find perfect peace.”
                   

                          ~Brother Lawrence

They were “Jesus freaks” and there was no way I would ever be like them. In fact, I can distinctly remember the time I told God that I would rather kill myself with a butter knife than turn out like one of them.
