“In the day-to-day struggle with self, with the forces of evil within and around us, it is only too easy to give up, to shut our eyes to the reality of our redemption, and to sink into despair. It is essential never to forget that Our Lord has accepted our human condition and saves us from within it.
“The very existence of the sacrament of penance, and still more of the Eucharist, is a constant reminder that He knows our weakness and our continual need of support and pardon.”
–from The Church and Sex by R. F. Trevett
