Jean Vanier’s Daily Thought – Monday,
27 January 2014 “Love is Necessary”
Community life demands that we
constantly go beyond our own resources. If we do not have the spiritual
nourishment we need, we will close in on ourselves and on our own comfort and
security, or throw ourselves into work as an escape. We will throw up walls
around our sensitivity; we will perhaps be polite and obedient, but we will not
love. And when you do not love, there is no hope and no joy.--Jean Vanier,
Community and Growth, page 168
