The Inner Voice of Love
"Henry Nouwen, Catholic priest and popular author (The Wounded Healer, 1972), hit a six-month spiritual and mental crisis at the end of 1987 during which he "wondered whether I would be able to hold on to my life. Everything came crashing down: my self-esteem, my energy to live and work, my sense of being loved, my hope for healing, my trust in God... everything." This book is his personal journal written during his time of anguish. For years, Nouwen felt his experience was too personal to share with the world, but on advice from friends, and in the hope that these insights would help nurture others, he published his journal entries."

Sounds so good...I love Nouwen. I think I'm going to check that baby out at the library.

From last nite's reading:
Romans 5:2-3 Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance (uh-huh); perseverance, character (yup); and character, hope (huh?).

I mean...I believe You and everything but I don't really see the connection. However, I think I've found a jewel that I'm excited for You to uncover.
