Loving the Sinner:

God hates sin with a hatred that we can’t imagine, but he profoundly loves the person who commits the sin. The world’s worst sinner is precious to God, who lovingly desires that he be saved.

O God, Creator of heaven and earth, cast on me an eye of pity. Deliver me from my miseries: Teach me the true way of pleasing you, and it shall be the whole employment and most earnest study of my life to serve you and to do your will.

- St. Pachomius (292-346)

In every situation, there are always two stories--the story you see and the story God sees. The storms of life won't harm you if you have deep roots in God.
