Dear Friends,
Here are words from St. Ambrose! "There are grounds for preferring the stray sheep to the other."
There is hope for the many!!! He continue "The truth is that it is a greater sin to turn back from one's sins than scarcely to have committed any. When souls are steeped in sin, not only do they need perfect human virtue to ... mend their ways, but heavenly grace is also necessary ..."
Never believe that returning to The Lord is impossible. All that is needed is a little dose of humility and a prayer begging The Lord to come for us "in a spirit of love and gentleness."
Oremus pro invicem!
Fr. Milt
