Daily Devotion - Wednesday, January 25

Something to Contemplate

Note: This week’s devotions are designed to help us journey deeper; the thoughts, insights and prayers come from various pens of writers who influence my spiritual awareness. Hope you enjoy!

Some words from Paul Tournier
To Understand Each Other (1976)

“Listen to all the conversations of our world, those between nations as well as those between couples. They are for the most part dialogues of the deaf. Exceedingly few exchanges of viewpoints manifest a real desire to understand the other person….. Here is a great mystery: no one comes to know himself through introspection alone, or in the solitude of a personal diary. If we wish to see ourselves clearly, we must open up to a confidant that we have freely chosen and feel is worthy of such trust.”
