PrayerLife - March 14 2016 - Understanding Repentance

Repentance is a turning away from sin. It is a spiritual u-turn. You confess and stop a behavior or pattern that is dishonoring to God and choose to conduct yourself in a way in keeping with your identity as a righteous child of God. Peter describes repentance this way, "Whoever desires to love life and see good days, let him keep his tongue from evil and his lips from speaking deceit; let him turn away from evil and do good" (1 Peter 3:10-11). Join me in prayer as we invite God to give us an attitude of repentance.
