“Laying Down Your Life for Your Friends:
Good Shepherds are willing to lay down their lives for their sheep (see John 10:11). As spiritual leaders walking in the footsteps of Jesus, we are called to lay down our lives for our people. This laying down might in special circumstances mean dying for others. But it means first of all making our own lives – our sorrows and joys, our despair and hope, our loneliness and experience of intimacy – available to others as sources of new life…” Henri Nouwen
You know, This is not the first time “Henri Nouwen” has encouraged me to keep this blog, and not set to private but actually share most of the journal entries. Just click on the blogging tag. you’ll see. I think there are at least two Henri Nouwen things. (It’s a “daily devotional” thing I subscribed to via email, by the way)
