A Good and Beautiful thought: I am deeply convinced that when I allow God to enter into my loneliness, when I allow him to let me know that I am loved far more deeply than I can imagine, only then can I give and receive real friendship...When I can say with Paul, not I live, but Christ lives in me, then I no longer need to depend on the attention of others to have a sense of self. Because then I realize that my most important identity is the identity I have received as a grace of God and which has made me a participant in the divine life of God himself. --Henri Nouwen, The Genesee Diary
