Patristic Quote of the Day

According to Thy compassion, O our Lord, forgive mine iniquities; by Thy grace blot out the record of my stains and remember not my sins. Praise be to the Lord God Who does not desire the death of a sinner! Praise to Thee, Who hast mercy on sinners! Praise to Thee Who receivest the penitent! -- St. Ephrem the Syrian, *A Spiritual Psalter* #65
