This quote was at the beginning of a chapter on a book on the history of the Sacrament of Reconciliation that I just read entitled The Dark Box. I really like this quote and really liked this book as well:
"Nothing could be more impossible than that God should be wrath. For wrath and friendship are two contraries. He that laid and destroyed our wrath and made us meek and mild --- we must believe that he is ever, in the same love, meek and mild; which is contrary to wrath." (Julian of Norwich - Revelations of Divine Love)
This is a blog of homilies, reflections, and photos from a Roman Catholic priest serving in the Diocese of Jackson in the state of Mississippi. Currently, I am the pastor of Holy Savior in Clinton and Immaculate Conception in Raymond. I have served as Vicar General of the Diocese since July 2019. I also serve as Catholic chaplain in the federal prison in Yazoo City and the state prison in Pearl.
