Brother Lawrence was a man of humble beginnings who discovered the greatest secret of living in the kingdom of God here on earth. It is the art of practicing the presence of God in one single act that does not end. He often stated that it is God who paints Himself in the depths of our souls. We must merely open our hearts to receive Him and His loving presence.
As a humble cook, Brother Lawrence learned an important lesson through each daily chore: The time he spent in communion with the Lord should be the same, whether he was bustling around in the kitchen--with several people asking questions at the same time--or on his knees in prayer. He learned to cultivate the deep presence of God so thoroughly in his own heart that he was able to joyfully exclaim, I am doing now what I will do for all eternity. I am blessing God, praising Him, adoring Him, and loving Him with all my heart.
This unparalleled classic has given both blessing and instruction to those who can be content with nothing less than knowing God in all His majesty and feeling His loving presence throughout each simple day.

The original and bestselling story of the miracles and message of Medjugorje, the little town in the hills of the former Yugoslavia that has become a global phenomenon. Journalist Wayne Weible tells how his life was forever changed by what he experienced there.

Since June 1981, in the unlikely little village of Medjugorje, the Blessed Virgin Mary has appeared daily to six young people who live in the valley that lies in the shadow of Mount Krizevac -- Cross Mountain. According to these youths, the mother of Jesus is bringing an urgent plea from her Son to all mankind to turn away from a world terminally ill with the disease of sin and reconcile with Him.

On October 27, 1985, Wayne Weible, a Protestant newspaper publisher and columnist, first learned of the phenomenon occurring in the little town with the unpronounceable name in Bosnia. Sensing that there might be material for his column, he decided to pursue the story. More than fifteen million copies of those columns were distributed, so he decided to write this book chronicling the story of Medjugorje.

With refreshing candor and self-deprecating humor, Wayne Weible takes readers with him on the adventure to Medjugorje that radically and permanently changed his life. You will discover the apparitions of the Blessed Mother along with him, as he chronicles the ways that the Virgin Mary continues to speak to the world today from Medjugorje. This book continues as the bestseller on Medjugorje in the English language, with over 500,000 copies sold.

Millions continue to come to the tiny village of Medjugorje to hear this covenant renewed by Mary's message from her Son. I was one of them. I wrote this book as the personal witness of one spiritually hungry soul who found peace and love in that message by way of the cross on Krizevac. - Wayne Weible

The Blessed Mother has been permitted by God to come here [because] she knows what is coming in the future. She is calling all God s children back on the path to Heaven. -Ivan Dragicevic, a visionary

Over twenty years ago, in the tiny mountain village of Medjugorje, Bosnia, six young people began to report seeing visions of the Virgin Mary. Since then, the beauty of Heaven and the importance of prayer, conversion, and reconciliation have been revealed to them through Mary s appearances. Queen of the Cosmos provides an opportunity to hear the messages of the mother of Christ through in-depth interviews with the six visionaries of Medjugorje. Their experiences have changed the lives of thousands of people who have found truth, encouragement, and solace in the words of the Blessed Mother. This new edition includes an afterword by the author, giving an update on both the lives of the visionaries and the visions they receive.
