Father Henri J. M. Nouwen’s Daily Meditation – Saturday, January
11, 2014 “Trusting the Catcher”
Trust is the basis of life. Without trust, no human being can
live. Trapeze artists offer a beautiful image of this. Flyers have to trust
their catchers. They can do the most spectacular doubles, triples, or
quadruples, but what finally makes their performance spectacular are the
catchers who are there for them at the right time in the right place.
Much of our lives is flying. It is wonderful to fly in the air
free as a bird, but when God isn't there to catch us, all our flying comes to
nothing. Let's trust in the Great Catcher.
