Episode 27: Spiritual Despondency and Temptations: Chapters 4-6

We must resist despondency and temptation which then leads to fear and rejection of God’s mercy. We limit God’s mercy when we believe that we are unforgivable. We mock our Lord on the Cross and reject His sacrifice when we turn away from His infinite merit. God loves you and wants you to always turn to Him when you fall and never to doubt in His infinite ability to forgive. As long as there is breath in your lungs there is hope.

Yours in Jesus and Mary.
