As you draw me ever deeper into your heart,
I discover that my companions on the journey are men and women
loved by you as fully and intimately as I am.
In your compassionate heart,
there is a place for all of them.
No one is excluded.
Give me a share in your compassion, dear God,
so that your unlimited love may become visible
in the way I love my brothers and sisters.
Amen
... from With Open Hands by Henri Nouwen
