He sketches the life of Benedict and reflects on how Benedict's instructions enable one to live constantly in the presence of God. Even the most mundane objects are signs of the presence of God. It is not merely that we focus our attention on God, but that we're aware that God always focuses attention on us, loving and encouraging us in all things. For example: he calls the cellarer to regard all utensils and goods of the monastery as sacred vessels of the altar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGr n also ponders how work is an aid to prayer and how the Benedictine vow of stability is essential to building community. Silence and the solitude that characterize the monastic are conditions for the possibility of genuine community.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach chapter concludes with a brief reflection on the state of contemporary society and how the aspect of the \u003ci\u003eRule of Benedict\u003c\/i\u003e treated in the chapter applies to the needs of today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 64\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.15 x 8.14 x 5.92 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 01, 2006\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52740318232883,"sku":"9780814629109","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/UzdOa3hIK2xhdGk5bmN1bDlRdnNzdz09.webp?v=1764068474","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/benedict-of-nursia-his-message-for-today-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
