Old Lutheran Quote of the Day

Give thanks, then, to God when you have this light, that God wants to forgive sins to those who acknowledge them. For God demands no vengeance or satisfaction after serious confession except as much as is necessary for an example and for improvement, as Ps. 32:5 attests: “I said: ‘I will confess my transgressions to the Lord’; then Thou didst forgive the guilt of my sin.” - Blessed Martin Luther on Genesis 42
