Jesus Hung Out With Ragamuffins.

The Gospel Declares That No Matter How Dutiful Or Prayerful We Are, We Can't Save Ourselves. What Jesus Did Was Sufficient.

The Men And Women Who Are Truly Filled With Light Are Those Who Have Gazed Deeply Into The Darkness Of Their Own Imperfect Existence.

We Should Be Astonished At The Goodness Of God, Stunned That He Should Bother To Call Us By Name, Our Mouths Wide Open At His Love, Bewildered That At This Very Moment We Are Standing On Holy Ground.

Accepting The Reality Of Our Sinfulness Means Accepting Our Authentic Self. Judas Could Not Face His Shadow; Peter Could. The Latter Befriended The Impostor Within; The Former Raged Against Him.

God Loves You Unconditionally, As You Are And Not As You Should Be, Because Nobody Is As They Should Be.
