God's providence means that wherever we have got to, whatever we have done, that is precisely where the road to heaven begins. However many clues we have missed, however many wrong turnings we have taken, however unnecessarily we may have complicated our journey, the road still beckons, and the Lord still 'waits to be gracious' to us.
Father Simon Tugwell, OP
The Lord waits to be gracious
