Accepting Powerlessness – A Wall Becomes A Gate – Henri Nouwen Meditation September 19th

Recovery Transforms Our Walls Of Powerlessness and Unmanageability Into Our Gates To Freedom And A Joy Of Living

“What seemed to be the end proved to be the beginning; what seemed to be a cause for fear proved to be a cause for courage; what seemed to be defeat proved to be victory; and what seemed to be the basis for despair proved to be the basis for hope. Suddenly a wall becomes a gate, and although we are not able to say with much clarity or precision what lies beyond the gate, the tone of all that we do and say on our way to the gate changes drastically.”
