Nouwen Meditation: The Unifying Love of God

Beginning November 25th, join us for a very special Advent book discussion as we explore one of the most enduring spiritual books of our time – Henri Nouwen’s Life of the Beloved. Our online book discussion is a wonderful way to enrich and enhance the Advent season in the company of a global community of Henri Nouwen readers!

DAILY MEDITATION | NOVEMBER 6, 2020
The Unifying Love of God
When your deepest self is connected with the deepest self of another, that person’s absence may be painful, but it will lead you to a profound communion with the person, because loving each other is loving in God. When the place where God dwells in you is intimately connected with the place where God dwells in the other, the absence of the other person is not destructive. On the contrary, it will challenge you to enter more deeply into communion with God, the source of all unity and community among people.
A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.

JOHN 13:34-35 (NIV)
