Richmond Hill, Ontario, Canada - L'Arche Canada Foundation Daily Thought with Jean Vanier for Saturday, 1 November 2014 "The Struggle"
There is a struggle inside you between these two parts. It’s as if at times your heart becomes a battlefield! The secret part, full of light, seems so small and weak in the face of the discouraging and morbid part, which seems enormous and overwhelming. However, if you light a small candle in a dark room, everything is lit up. It is a matter of trusting in this little light in the deepest part of your being which can gradually chase away the darkness.(Jean Vanier, Seeing Beyond Depression, page 55)
