"Mercifully, God's goodness longs to help us, and He encourages us, 'Every time you fall, get up again.' To fall is human, but to fall and not get up is demonic. Even if we fall seventy times seven a day, let us arise again. Many times we find fault with others, we harbor feelings of hatred and hostility, and we do not forgive easily, ignoring God's commandment to forgive seventy times seven a day (vid. Mt. 18:22)."
-Elder Ephraim, from The Art of Salvation
