Repentance

Repentance

Charles Spurgeon, the renowned Prince of Preachers, described repentance as a continual life-long act and wrote that “It is a thing to be done all your life long.” The biblical concept of repentance is often misunderstood though. Repentance is a summons from a gracious king, not a threat from a harsh tyrant. Whatever Jesus may be asking you to turn away from, know that He does so with much kindness, and offers much more in return. My encouragement is to pray this week asking God to help you let go of whatever gets in the way of your relationship with Him. He is calling out with love to you to draw closer than ever before. Now that’s something to pray about!
