nouwen & fearful self

"...Jesus dwells in your fearful, never fully received self. When you befriend your true self and discover that it is good and beautiful, you will see Jesus there. Where you are most human, most yourself, your weakest, there Jesus lives. Bringing your fearful self home is bringing Jesus home."
Henri Nouwen's journal, The Inner Voice of Love, p. 49.
