Lamentations 3:22–23 (NRSVUE)
The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases,
his mercies never come to an end;
they are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.
I begin again in grace.
Henri Nouwen, from *The Return of the Prodigal Son*
“Returning is not a one-time event.
It is a long and painful process.
It is the continuous choice
to trust that there will be a homecoming,
even when you feel lost.
The movement of returning
is not a straight line.
It is a series of small choices,
often made in weakness,
to step toward love again and again.
The great gift of God
is that we are always welcomed home.
No matter how far we have wandered,
no matter how often we have failed,
the arms of mercy remain open.”
