“Something very deep and mysterious, very holy and sacred, is taking place in our lives right where we are, and the more attentive we become the more we will begin to see and hear it. The more our spiritual sensitivities come to the surface of our daily lives, the more we will discover—uncover—a new presence in our lives.”

• Henri Nouwen

God quietly, gently, patiently, and steadily offers to us his healing and guidance. We need to be open to and continue to be patient, persistent, and participate in his love and trust in him. He knows what he is doing in our lives even when sometimes we don’t and sometimes when we think we do but we really don’t! We need to resist walking too far ahead, or dragging our feet and lingering behind. Instead we will be better when w remember to breathe, rest, receive, and abide in his love. 

From this place of experiencing and abiding in his love, may we entertain our thoughts, make our decisions, speak, and act.
