"O Lord, all you ask of me is a simple "yes," a simple act of trust, so that your choices for me can bear fruit in my life.
I do not want you to pass me by. I do not want to be so busy with my way of living, my plans and projects, my relatives, friends and acquaintances, that I do not even notice that you are with me, closer to me than anyone else.
I do not want to be blind to the loving gestures that come from your hands, nor deaf to the caring words that come from your mouth.
I want to see you as you walk with me and hear you as you speak to me..."
:: Henri Nouwen, Heart Speaks to Heart
