L'Arche Canada Foundation - Jean Vanier's Daily Thought for Saturday 8 March 2014 "Acceptance"
We may find the strength to discover our own wound and solitude, our cry of distress. Community can never comfort this distress; it is inherent in the human condition. But community can help us to accept it, and remind us that God responds to our cry and that we are never entirely alone. To live in community is to learn to walk alone in the desert, at night and in tears.--Jean Vanier, Community and Growth, page 195
