God Always Awaits Us
We have to firmly and unconditionally believe in the mercy of God. We need to offer him the gift of our ‘nothingness’, whenever we experience our failings and weaknesses, convinced that we will attract his forgiveness and grace if we are not superficial, but rather act out of pure love for him, resolved to start over again immediately. The gift of our nothingness is the most beautiful response we can give to his love.

✝️ Prayer to Trust in God’s Mercy
Merciful Father, You never tire of waiting for us. Forgive our weakness and failures. Thank You for loving us in our nothingness. Teach us to return without delay, offering all we are, so that Your mercy may transform us again and again. Amen.
A prayer a day, keeps the soul from drifting away
