Repentance

(Found here)

“The Lord greatly loves the repenting sinner and mercifully presses him to His bosom: ‘Where were you, My child? I was waiting a long time for you.’ The Lord calls all to Himself with the voice of the Gospel, and His voice is heard in all the world: ‘Come to Me, My sheep. I created you, and I love you. My love for you brought Me to earth, and I suffered all things for the sake of your salvation, and I want you all to know My love, and to say, like the apostles on Tabor: ‘Lord, it is good for us to be with You.’”
~St. Silouan
