"A true Christian is made by faith and love toward Christ. Our sins do
not in the least hinder our Christianity, according to the word of the
Saviour Himself. He deigned to saynot the righteous have I come to call,
but sinners to salvation; there is more joy in heaven over one who
repents than over ninety righteous ones. Likewise concerning the sinful
woman who touched His feet, He deigned to say to the Pharisee Simonto
one who has love, a great debt is forgiven, but from one who has no love
even a small debt will be demanded. From these judgements a Christian
should bring himself to hope and joy, and not in the least accept an
inflicted despair. Here one needs the shield of faith."

St. Herman of Alaska.

"Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who
loves is born of God and knows God." 1 John 4:7

Draw nigh unto God and He will draw nigh unto you.
