Preoccupation with self is always a major component of unhealthy guilt and recrimination. It stirs our emotions, churning in self-destructive ways, closes us in upon the might citadel of self, leads to depression and despair and preempts the presence of a compassionate God...."

love of Christ knows no shadow of alteration or change...."
