The Call To Sinners
“I did not come to call the virtuous, but sinners” - Matthew 9
You are the Lord of all Mercy, the very fount of mercy itself. And yet we sometimes seek to declare who can and cannot approach You, who can and cannot benefit from that limitless mercy. How presumptuous we are.
Lord, forgive us those times when we seek to close off the fount of mercy to those in need, and when we look down on those whose sin is different to our own - we forget that all of us are sinners, all of us are in need of mercy.
