From the prayer Journal of Fr. Jack Tolley

4/10/2019

 
"God reminds us that grace is sufficient to save us,
 -and that we need not fear when we fall short 
- and that we become fertile ground for transformation.
We are works in progress, not works of perfection." 
(Mary W. Cox)

I find myself saying things like I should’ve done this or that better - being very critical about myself. Do you do that ? It's comforting for me to know that God is not keeping a book of faults on me.
He is my, and your friend always.
Blessings and love, Fr. Jack.

"Thanks be to God for the amazing willingness to come looking for us
 when we are lost and in need of reassurance and calm."
(Linda Buskirk ).

"But those who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength,
they shall mount up with wings like eagles,
they shall run and not be weary,
they shall walk and not be faint."
(Psalm 40: 31)
