Most committed Christians don't like to admit it, but all too many of us serve God solely out of a sense of duty, without ever approaching the burning love and intimacy that the saints have with Him. Indeed, many believers don't even think it's possible to attain to the heights of holy love that built the great cathedrals and fired the martyrs to give their lives for their Lord. But in Awakening Your Soul to the Presence of God, Fr. Kilian Healy says that you can indeed and should develop this kind of love for God.
Clearly and warmly, Fr. Healy (who was once the superior general of the Carmelite order worldwide) explains that God is constantly calling you to intimate friendship with Him. In this beautiful book brief enough to be read in one sitting yet with enough spiritual depth to last a lifetime he details how you can develop your friendship with God even amid the cares and distractions of your daily life.
