If you are headed in the wrong direction…then God allows U-turns…called repentance...

From that time began Jesus to preach, and to say, Repent ye; for the kingdom of heaven is at hand...Matthew 4:17. For godly sorrow worketh repentance unto salvation, a repentance which bringeth no regret: but the sorrow of the world worketh death...2 Corinthians 7:10. I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish (die)...Luke 13:5.


Repentance is a change of heart…feeling sorry for our poor behavior…change in mind…deciding to do better and make better decisions…and a change in direction…fulfilling the change heart and mind with changed deeds. It is a U-turn if you will away from selfish desires and actions to a God oriented direction. Have you ever made a commitment to God I did when I was baptized… And the Lord's servant must not strive, but be gentle towards all, apt to teach, forbearing, in meekness correcting them that oppose themselves; if peradventure (perhaps) God may give them repentance unto the knowledge of the truth, and they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, having been taken captive by him unto his will...2 Timothy 2:24-26. It says God may grant us repentance…we need God to change according to His truth.


Prayer

Father please grant us repentance where needed and meet our soul’s deepest needs…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
