Nouwen Meditation: Remembering the Dead

 
 
 

Now & Then Podcast



In the midst of Covid-imposed isolation, best-selling author Philip Yancey plunged into updating his best-seller, What’s So Amazing About Grace and penned a modern rendering of John Donne’s Devotions, titled Undone. Join us this week on Henri Nouwen, Now & Then for a rich and honest exploration of the question of suffering and the mysterious power of grace.

DAILY MEDITATION | NOVEMBER 2, 2023

Remembering the Dead

To remember my mother does not mean telling her story over and over again to my friends, nor does it mean pictures on the wall or a stone on her grave; it does not even mean constantly thinking about her. No. It means making her a participant in God’s ongoing work of redemption by allowing her to dispel in me a little more of my darkness and lead me a little closer to the light. In these weeks of mourning she died in me more and more every day, making it impossible for me to cling to her as my mother. Yet by letting her go I did not lose her. Rather, I found that she is closer to me than ever. In and through the Spirit of Christ, she indeed is becoming a part of my very being.

And now, dear brothers and sisters, we want you to know what will happen to the believers who have died so you will not grieve like people who have no hope. For since we believe that Jesus died and was raised to life again, we also believe that when Jesus returns, God will bring back with him the believers who have died.


1 THESSALONIANS 4:13-14 (NLT)
