The more we come to know ourselves, the more we come to know God’s mercy, which is beyond the mercy we know. Letting go of the desire to be perfect lovers and allowing God to love our people through us: that is the great spiritual call that is given to you and to me. There in the pure heart of God, embraced by His unconditional love, you will find the true joy and peace your heart is longing for.
--Henri Nouwen
