In knowing mercy, gratitude (Fr. Ron Rolheiser)


  Our lives are a dialogue between God’s mercy and our weaknesses. We are forever falling short at something, no matter the strength of our sincerity, good intention, and willpower.  Only mercy, receiving it and giving it, can lead us out of the choppy waters of our own anxieties, worry, and joylessness.  Only in knowing mercy do we know gratitude.
