Repeating the Past

Repeating the Past

And so, we have to recognize kaper avon v’over al pesha. How many times has He forgiven us?! Again and again He forgives us and that means we come to You not only bent-kneed but we’re bent over in shame.

Imagine you come to somebody and ask him for a loan so he takes out $50, “Here.” Then next week, you're hard up again, you need the money. You're a little embarrassed, but you go again. Again he takes it out.

Next week you come again; this time you're more than a little ashamed. How many times can you bother a man?! But what can you do? The circumstances are forcing you; there's nobody else. So you go to him again.
