God is not you

"Do not measure God with your limitations." -Fr. Lanteri

So you cannot forgive, cannot love purely, cannot be merciful, patient or kind. What does this have to do with God? He is Love and Mercy. Do not presume that He does not forgive you because you cannot forgive your friend. Do not presume that He does not love you with your faults, because you cannot love your friend who irritates you. God is infinite Goodness. We cannot fathom Him. What a pity you take a page from the world and insist that He can be no better than you.
