Isaiah 56:8 says, “The Sovereign Lord declares – he who gathers the exiles of Israel: ‘I will gather yet others to him besides those already gathered.’” Sisters and brothers, the Lord grants us forgiveness and gathers us into His fold. We are not excluded for our sinfulness. We are gathered in our forgiveness. Amen.
