Quiet moment: on repentance

Catholic Digest - The Magazine for Catholic Living
 

Today's Quiet Moment

Saturday, July 28

We should never lure ourselves into imagining that to lament over one's past is an act of

repentance. It is part of it, of course, but repentance remains unreal and barren so long as

it has not led us to doing the will of God... We are quite often satisfied with emotions

instead of real, deep changes.

Metropolitan Anthony of Sourozh
