God's Mercy Breaks Through

Despite our lukewarmness, indifference, lack of effort, laziness, superficial prayers and other imperfections, God's mercy always seems to "break through" to us and assure us that we are still his beloved. There's just no "second chance" for us with God, rather,  it's an infinite number of chances. We need to be reminded of this from time to time before complacency or discouragement creep in and dull our Lenten resolves.  God calls, God waits, God helps, God loves and desires that we reach our full capacity.  God will never leave us to our own mediocrity, but will nudge, push and pull, even shock us into action, or into the trust we lack in his infinite love.  Merciful God, shake me, rattle me, wake me up to your vast mercy which extends far beyond the reaches of our seemingly endless universe.
Bro. Rene
