”In all our affliction, I am overflowing with joy!”2 Corinthians 7:4b

When would you know when you’ve been humbled enough for your sin?

The answer is:When you’re willing to let go of your sin.

Thomas Watson

I regret the hours I have wasted,And the pleasures I have tasted, That You were never in. And I confess that Though Your love is in me,It doesn’t always win me, When competing with my sin. And I repent, making no excuses. I repent, no one else to blame. And I return to fall in love with Jesus.

I bow down on my knees, and I repent.I lament the idols I’ve accepted, The commandments I’ve rejected, To pursue my selfish end.And I confess I need You to revive me, Put selfishness behind me,And take up my cross again. And I repent, making no excuses. I repent, no one else to blame.And I return to fall in love with Jesus.I bow down on my knees, and I repent.1

“We should be thankful for our tears:They prepare us for a clearer vision of God.”William A. Ward
