" He learned to perfect the depth of God's presence in his heart so thoroughly that he could joyfully exclaim: "I do now what I will do all eternity. I bless God, praise Him, exalt Him and love Him with all my heart."
For over 300 years, this unparalleled classical work gives blessing and instruction to those who do not want to be satisfied with anything other than the knowledge of God in all of His power and the experience of His tender presence throughout the day.
