Good Words for Today: December 1

Repentance is a gift, not a burden. When we repent, we are simply saying, “Lord, you were right all along.” That shouldn’t be hard for a Christian to say because repentance opens the door to all of God’s blessings. Be quick to repent! If we delay, we hurt ourselves and those around us. Martin Luther remarked that the Christian life is a life of continual repentance. He’s right. O Lord, make us eager to repent and quick to turn from our foolish ways. Amen.
