The Others

Filed under: Reflections, Literature

This excerpt is dedicated especially to Jo, Angela, Wen, Min, Hwee Peck, Sharine & Ian.

"This stream of counselling… flows through His people as well. We need others–we need them deeply. The fact is, we are usually too close to our lives to see what’s going on. Because it’s our story we’re trying to understand, we sometimes don’t know what’s true or false, what’s real and imagined. We can’t see the forest for the trees. It often takes the eyes of someone to whom we can tell our story, bare our souls. The more dire our straits, the more difficult it can be to hear directly from God."
