Summary

This little classic is here to help us focus on what really truly matters: God. You are never alone cause God is with you. If you are ready to shut out the external world and go within, this book is for you. 

Saint Albert the Great and Hillary Hawkins present this special volume to help you on your spiritual journey through life. And at the end, please enjoy the New Thought poem you won't find anywhere else. Great self-reflection and spiritual development. God bless you my friend.
