You cannot be more concerned about your sinfulness than about God's mercy.

Radically transfer your center of gravity and the entire area of spiritual striving
into God's mercy and love
into unlimited trust and gratitude.
Do not dissect the details of your shortcomings.
If you owed nothing to God, He would have nothing to forgive you for.
He forgives gladly. Don’t want it to be with the Lord 1 : 1.
Do not dissect that sinful aspect. Keep it as a repentant mindset.
You should not be more concerned with your sinfulness than with God's mercy.

(Fr. Benedikt Holota OFM /* 1922/, notes, July 1981)
