DeseretBook.com - The Continuous Atonement: "Perhaps as we reflect on our lives, it is easy to convince ourselves we have sinned too often and gone too far to deserve the Atonement. We criticize ourselves harshly and beat ourselves up mercilessly. Perhaps we feel we have stepped beyond the reach of the Atonement by knowingly repeating a previously forsaken sin. We understand that God and Jesus were willing to forgive the first time, but we wonder how many more times they will be willing to watch us bumble along before they finally roll their eyes and declare, “Enough already!” We struggle so much to forgive ourselves that we wrongly assume God must be having the same struggle."
I thought this was pretty much the best summary of how it feels to make a mistake time and time again and not know whether God was going to continue to put up with me or not. I bet there are others out there who feel the same way, and so I posted this short quote. Read the rest of it by clicking the first link. It's really good.
