The greatness of sin, the enormity of sin, the aggravations of sin, the multitude of sins, any, yea, all of these put together never exclude a penitent from the blessed forgiveness of God! Who can limit the Divine Mercy? To which of you, in your old age of guilt, or in the sturdiness of your younger rebellion, do not its offers extend? What sinner did the Mercy of God ever repel? what wounded heart did it ever fail to heal? If you will turn to it, you may leave all your fears behind you. Mercy, God's Mercy, will never ask how you have sinned—how long you have sinned—or through how many Divine influences you have gone on hardening your heart! The Lord is plenteous in mercy.
