This world is just so corrupted and its really hard not to pick up its mentalities and think that just a little sin is not that bad. And when it happens, Ill say a little Im sorry and move forward until I stumble the next day and do it again.
But wait. Isnt that a sign of an unrepentant life?
Recently I realized just how much something that I viewed as a “little” and not so bad sin was affecting me. Looking back I wish that I would have gotten rid of it a long time ago. There is nothing like living a totally repentant life.
I even know some christians that preach like a big ol Apostolic all firy and stuff. They probably run around the church and act crazy on Sundays.
And yet they are already planning on having sex in the next relationship they are in because they want to know that part is good before they get married.
There is an abundance of christians who dont live what the bible says is a clean and repentant life. There is a wee little bitty few that have reached the point of “repentance”.
I almost think its not because its so hard because it seems like each sin I let go of, I feel like a weight has lifted. I dont even realize how wrong it felt until its gone.
But I think its becasue we dont realize the consequences of it. We dont even know what it is doing to us. In other words, we dont realize the importance of a truly repentant life.
My goal is to live everyday as a repentant christian who says Im sorry and who is actively trying to turn away from the struggle bus called sin.
