This Day’s Thought-Friday


This Day's Thought

St. Benedict said, “Always, we begin again.” It’s the same in twelve-step work. Every day, you get up and you try again. That’s our relationship with God—you can go way off the rails spiritually and forget about God and not spend enough time with God, and neglect your prayer life, and God is in that chapel waiting for you to come back. Missing you. Loving you. Always wanting to be with you. That’s the kind of love that God has for us. I hadn’t heeded the call when I was younger, and God still loved me. I had lied about my faith, and God still loved me. I had failed to go to church, and God still loved me. And now I was ready to begin again.
