This audio reflection is 4.31 minutes in length. It begins with a quote from Henri Nouwen:

"You must make the connection between prayer and life. The closer you are to the heart of God, the closer you come to the heart of the world, the closer you come to others... We're called always to action, but that action must not be driven, obsessive, guilt-ridden. Basically it's action that comes out of knowing God's love." (from "The Road to Peace" edited by John Dear, page 159).

The rest of the reflection is an invitation to receive words of God's love from the Bible, so that we might be sent out to share God's love.
