The gift of reconciliation is a gift of grace. God cares nothing for great works and mighty deeds, loving and desiring instead a contrite heart. Sin hardens us with hatred and despair, producing misshapen and flawed vessels likely to shatter in the furnace of love. But grace softens us that the Potter may form us as He wills; into beautiful vessels for His Spirit, tempered by divine flame.
