A PRAYER BY HENRI NOUWEN
Dear Lord, let your Spirit give me the power to overcome all hesitation, to take away all fear, and to remove all shyness...let it allow me to experience your presence not only through the darkness of faith but also through new sensitivities that allow me to see, hear, taste, touch, and even smell a reality that reaches beyond what my natural senses perceive. Amen.
