quote from Mom's reading
Repentance, confession, and faith do not add to God's forgiveness; they let it in. God's forgiveness is not dependent on our repentance, confession, and faith; it is dependent on Christ's blood....The penances we do, we do because we have been forgiven, not in order to be forgiven. --Peter Kreeft

*Very* good. It's easy to mistake the "reason" for repentance, and turn it into a way to make God like us again. Thanks for that quote. -- SJ
