Our Lenten Journey, March 24, 2019
Quotes of the Day:
“Anger begins with folly, and ends with repentance.” — Pythagoras
“But the man who is not afraid to admit everything that he sees to be wrong with himself, and yet recognizes that he may be the object of God’s love precisely because of his shortcomings, can begin to be sincere. His sincerity is based on confidence, not in his own illusions about himself, but in the endless, unfailing mercy of God.”
― Thomas Merton, No Man Is an Island
“God has promised forgiveness to your repentance, but He has not promised tomorrow to your procrastination.”
