Gibbous Moon

Gibbous Moon

Here’s how I expect you to repent for your offenses against Me: Genuflect thrice daily, bowing enough times that your knees and back ache. Confess your darkest secrets aloud on the street corner every gibbous moon, so I know you're genuinely repentant. Drive with no seatbelt. Leave your shoelaces untied and see what happens. Bet it all on green. Ask your boss out for a drink. Get wasted and discuss politics freely at the holiday party. Always remember that this is an act of supreme mercy, because you messed up big-time when you tried to profit off My sacred name.
