A Dance of Care and Boundaries

There are times when to solve someone’s problem is to take away not only a person’s agency but their opportunity for real growth. Rather caring might look like walking with someone in their problem so that the problem becomes the stimulus to embrace the fullness of who they are as “God-created, Christ-invaded” human beings. This is the hard work of being present to someone’s suffering without feeling the need to immediately fix it. To pray with opens them out towards possibility.
