Repentance and faith are the gifts of God, and they are gifts that He often withholds, when they have been long offered in vain.

I grant you, one penitent thief was converted in his last hours, that no man might despair; But I warn you, only one was converted, that no man might presume.

Or if you'd ever want another god to fill their place. You don't want the fire to go out inside you twice. — Gary D. Schmidt
