I am always grateful that God is much more patient and merciful than I could ever imagine being. Not that I am a bad person or anything yet there is a part of me that sometimes fantasizes about punishing those who have wronged me....probably much more than they deserve.
The Prologue of the Rule tells us that God patiently waits for us to return through good deeds and listening to the Word. God constantly offers us opportunities to repent of our past and to be renewed in newness of heart. That is a good message to hear as we begin a new year.
How will 2010 be a year of grace and mercy from the Lord for us?
