The L'Arche Canada Foundation in Richmond Hill, Ontario, Canada Daily Thought by Jean Vanier for Saturday, 22 August 2015 "Longing for What Counts"
The mystery of people with disabilities is that they long for authentic and loving relationships more than for power. They are not obsessed with being well- situated in a group that offers acclaim and promotion. They are crying out for what matters most: love. And God hears their cry because in some way they respond to the cry of God, which is to give love.[Jean Vanier in "Living Gently in a Violent World," page 22]
