TO WHOM DO I BELONG?
July 23rd, 2009TO WHOM DO I BELONG?
At issue here is this question: “To whom do I belong? To God or to the world?” Many of my daily preoccupations suggest that I belong more to the world than to God. A little criticism makes me angry, and a little rejection makes me depressed. A little praise raises my spirits, and a little success excites me… Often I am like a small boat on the ocean, completely at the mercy of its waves.
– Henri Nouwen in The Return of The Prodigal Son
How I want to belong only to Christ. Lord, I believe, help thou my unbelief.
