On the return of a sinner

The sinful soul which does not know the Lord fears death, thinking that the Lord will not forgive her sins.  But this is because the soul does not know the Lord and how greatly He loves us...The Lord not only forgives but rejoices exceedingly at the return of a sinner.  St. Silouan of the Holy Mountain (Athos)
