Or do you presume on the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience, ROMANS 2:4a
To me this is one of the scariest places to be. The hypocrisy and stubbornness and just utter betrayal is just black and white. But when I’m truly honest with myself I feel like I’m doing that all the time… Woe is me. I’m so unworthy!! If there was a list of people that deserved the wrath of God the most, my name would be on the very top!!! The whole point is to push me to repent!! Not just stay in disobedience and sin…
not knowing that God’s kindness is meant to lead you to repentance? ROMANS 2:4b
Isn’t it cool that every single problem, every question and emotion and action can be explained in scripture. Living and active to teach and train and guide! Thank you Jesus for making a way for me to get to you!!! On my own I would be dead and alone chasing my tail in a dark room somewhere… But you have a plan. Please help me to walk in repentance everyday for the rest of my life!
APPLICATION
Live out repentance everyday. Find the sin and the action associated with it and do the opposite. Keep the holiness of God as the main focus as I go through my prayers and my day. Walking in repentance means to change. Let actions speak for themselves. Trust God knowing that He is sufficient! He can fill my cup with everlasting life!! Please Lord have mercy on me. Help me to change the thing that doesn’t bring you honor! Stop trashing our testimony with things that don’t bring people to Jesus. Eternal focus!!! Spreading the gospel is the goal. His plans, not my plans!! Be a living and walking example to my family because it all starts with me.
In His Name.
