Nouwen Meditation: Receive Jesus’ Love

Now & Then Podcast  In a hope-filled conversation about the future of our planet, guest John Mundell, environmental engineer and director of Laudato Si’ Action Platform, calls us to put our faith in action. This episode of Henri Nouwen, Now & Then, challenges us to address the damage caused by human negligence and abuse of God’s creation. LISTEN NOW DAILY MEDITATION | OCTOBER 20, 2023 Receive Jesus’ Love Jesus wants us to receive the love he offers. He wants nothing more than that we allow him to love us and enjoy that love. This is so hard since we always feel that we have to deserve the love offered to us. But Jesus wants to offer that love to us not because we have earned it, but because he has decided to love us independently of any effort on our side. Our own love for each other should flow from that “first love” that is given to us undeserved. Share This Email Share This Email Share This Email “Freely you have received, freely give."
