Inspiring Paintings: Returning to the Father (3)

This beautiful painting, and Henri Nouwen’s profound book of the same name, inspires me again and again.  The collections “Returning to the Father” and “Returning to the Master” (links at top of site) are also both inspired by the same source. 

At the

Intersection

 

Of eternity

And worldly life

 

Gentle hands

Warm a sobbing body

 

And human

And divine

 

Are

One.
