Fratello Lorenzo, nato Nicolas Herman, fu un frate laico francese rinomato per la sua profonda spiritualità e saggezza. Nonostante la sua umile posizione all'interno del monastero, si guadagnò la reputazione di uomo che provava una profonda pace interiore. Le persone cercavano la sua guida spirituale e i consigli che impartiva attraverso conversazioni e lettere costituirono la base dell'influente libro "La pratica della presenza di Dio". La sua filosofia si concentrava sul mantenimento di una costante consapevolezza della presenza di Dio in tutte le attività quotidiane.
