My experience has shown that when we welcome people from this world of anguish, brokenness and depression, and when they gradually discover that they are wanted and loved as they are and that they have a place, then we witness a real transformation - I would even say resurrection. Their tense, angry, fearful, depressed body gradually becomes relaxed, peaceful, and trusting. This shows through the expression on the face and through all of their flesh. As they discover a sense of belonging, that they are part of a family, then the will to live emerges. I do not believe it is of any value to push people into doing things unless this desire to live and to grow has begun to emerge. - Jean Vanier Help me today Lord to cultivate a sense of belonging.
