Only the man who has had to face despair is really convinced that he needs mercy. Those who do not want mercy never seek it. It is better to find God on the threshold of despair than to risk our lives in a complacency that has never felt the need of forgiveness.
— Thomas Merton, No Man Is an Island, Sentences on Hope
Grace and peace to you…
