Henri Nouwen found a remarkable guide in a severely disabled young man named Adam. Excerpts from Adam: God's Beloved "In our society plagued by fear, anxiety, loneliness, depression, and a sense of being lost, we keep looking for guides. We so much hope that someone-a guru, spiritual director, or soul friend-can help us make sense out of our confusion and can show us a way to inner wholeness, freedom, and peace." "I recognized that Adam's way, the way of radical vulnerability, was also the way of Jesus." "Adam clearly challenged us [the L'Arche Daybreak community] to trust that compassion, not competition, is the way to fulfill our human vocation. This challenge forced us to reexamine all the basic assumptions of our individual and action-oriented lives." "I am a witness to Adam's truth. I know that I couldn't have told Adam's story if I hadn't first known Jesus' story. Jesus' story gave me eyes to see and ears to hear the story of Adam's life and death."
