Keeping It Together


 

We can only survive our world when we trust that God knows us more intimately than we know ourselves.

We can only keep it together when we believe that God holds us together.

We can only win our lives when we remain faithful to the truth that every little part of us, yes, every hair, is completely safe in the divine embrace of our Lord.

To say it differently: When we keep living a spiritual life, we have nothing to be afraid of.

Henri Nouwen
