Jesus Enters Our Sadness

Henri Nouwen writes, "For in our suffering, not apart from it, Jesus enters our sadness, takes us by the hand, pulls us gently up to stand, and invites us to dance. We find the way to pray, as the psalmist did, ‘You have turned my mourning into dancing' (Psalm 30:11), because at the center of our grief we find the grace of God."
