"A rule of thumb in confession is to keep at it until you have inklings of hope or joy. Confession is not a time to grovel. It is a time to trust in God who delights in forgiving because it brings Him glory. Don't forget the story of the joy the shepherd takes in the one lost sheep that is found... Yes, you wander off, but focus on the happiness of the shepherd. It isn't what you expected." ~E. Welch
