When we live from God’s breath we recognize with
joy that the same breath that keeps us alive is also the source of life for our
brothers and sisters. This realization
makes our fear of the other disappear, our weapons fall away, and brings a smile
to our lips.
When we recognize the
breath of God in others,
we can let them enter our lives
and receive the gifts
they offer.
--Henri Nouwen, With Open Hands
