From Henri Nouwen's Mornings with Henri J.M. Nouwen:
"Listen to the book. By that I mean read the Bible; read books about the Bible, about the spiritual life, and the lives of "great" saints. I know you read a good deal, but a lot of what you read distracts you from the way that Jesus is showing you...
Your thirst for knowledge and information often makes you desire to own the word, instead of letting the word own you. Even so, you will learn the most by listening carefully to the Word that seeks admission to your heart."
So, fellow teachers and leaders, does the Word own us?
'Til next time,
Joan
