Vices
and Sins
One who has
stumbled…
Do not fall into
despair because of stumbling. I do not mean that you should not feel contrition
for them, but that you should not think them incurable. For it is more
expedient to be bruised than dead. There is, indeed, a Healer for the man who
has stumbled, even He Who on the Cross asked that mercy be shown to His
crucifiers.
Saint Isaac of Syria
(Seventh Century)
