If you, O Lord, should mark iniquities,
O Lord, who could stand?
But with you there is forgiveness,
that you may be feared.
I wait for the Lord, my soul waits,
and in his word I hope;
my soul waits for the Lord
more than watchmen for the morning,
more than watchmen for the morning. - Psalm 130-3-6
With this forgiveness granted to us, can we not find the grace to forgive those who have sinned against us?
"After midnight we're gonna let it all hang out. After midnight we're gonna chug-a-lug and shout. We're gonna cause talk and suspicion, Give 'em an exhibition Find out what it is all about" - Eric Clapton. --- After midnight, we may do things that we would not do before. We often use the cover of darkness and solitude as a space for moral escapism. God Before Midnight reminds us that there is no escape and very often it's best to turn out the light and go to sleep.
