Do you remember, I always recommended you to think often about God, day and night, in every work, during every entertainment, and while resting in your free time. He is always close to you, He is always with you. Do not leave Him alone! Would you not consider it rude to leave a friend who visits you alone? Can we treat God like this? How can we dare to neglect Him? Therefore, do not forget about Him, think of Him often, pray to Him without ceasing, live and die with Him: this is a wonderful task for a Christian – in one word: this is our calling. If we still do not know how, we must learn it. I will strive to help you with my prayer.
(St. Lawrence of Resurrection, correspondence, letter no. 11)
