Real Repentance

Real Repentance…what is it?  According to Beth Moore, “Real repentance is always accompanied by godly sorrow.  Asking God to forgive us for a sin we are not yet sorry we committed is a waste of time.”   Deep down, you must confess your sins and also you must turn from them.

I think that’s tough.  Some people do confess about their sins but then, those sins tend to crawl back in their lives.  It’s important to note to stop sinning and let God guide you along the way.  A real repentance is to change your mind that results into actions, a change in behavior.  We are humans and we make mistakes.  We are not perfect but don’t ever distance yourself from him.  

Amos 5:6 “Seek the Lord and live…” (NIV)

Matthew 3:8 “Produce fruit in keeping with repentance.” (NIV)
