Nouwen says this of Merton. “ He indeed made his own life available to others to help them find their own –and not his-way. In this sense, he was and still is  a true minister, creating the free space where others can enter and discover God’s voice in their lives.”


This is exactly what I want to be in life. So much that it almost brings me to tears. I don't know exactly how I will pursue this but I know I will make every effort to become this kind of man.

Adam,
I haven't read your blog for some time. I love the Merton quote. Having just interviewed for the spiritual formations program, it strikes such a chord with me.
thank you!
grace and peace to you this day.
