Day 18: Instant
On 29, Mar 2011 | One Comment | In Lent 2011, Spiritual | By Efren
I always get overwhelmed how fast God is to forgive me, but how slow I am in asking for forgiveness.
I spend days and months of trying to cope with guilt, regret and worry. I’m always taken back when I go to confession and in an instant, I’m reminded that God and I are still cool. That I’m still loved, and that laundry list of not so good things I just read off, is put in his shredder immediately.
He definitely doesn’t waste His time with me. With all my dilly-dallying, I pray I don’t waste anymore time of His.

God is infinitely forgiving. Pride gets in the way a lot of the times, even if the penitent knows he’s wrong.
