(PRWEB) September 22, 2005 -- "With an eye focused on the poor, a heart trusting that we get what we need, and a spirit always surprised by joy, we will exercise true power and walk through this valley of darkness performing and witnessing miracles. God's power becomes ours and goes out from us wherever we go and to whomever we meet." - Henri J.M. Nouwen, from Words of Hope and Healing: 99 Sayings by Henri Nouwen
