Joy of repentance.

The conditions to save a person are determined by God. Humility and the cross: these are the conditions that are provided to the repentant sinner so that he can find peace and tranquility.

The idea that Jesus made humiliation and sacrifice, that no man could bear, should drown in us any grumbling voice.

Through sincere repentance before God for violating his Law and through faith in Jesus Christ, as Redeemer and Intercessor for a sinner, a person receives the deepest joy and satisfaction.

Christ did his best for us to be strong. He has given us his Holy Spirit, who is busy reminding us of the promises made by Christ so that we can have peace and a sweet sense of forgiveness.

If we constantly look to the Savior and trust in His power, we will be calm; The inner world will fill our hearts, because the righteousness of Christ will become our righteousness.

Complaining about our weakness, we grieve and dishonor him. Instead of looking at ourselves, we will constantly look at Jesus, becoming more and more like Him every day. In this way, we will learn to preach about Him and we will be able to receive his abundant blessings.

By living in close communion with God, we put forth his strength and become support and blessing for those around us. If we only acted the way the Lord wants us to, then our hearts would be compared to the holy harp, each of which would glorify the Redeemer, sent by God to take upon himself the sin of the world.

Good write up. The joy in repenting from sins which could lead to condemnation is incomparable to anything.

Thank you for such a beautiful performance.

Great words @malenagarcia . Let us not forget that our first instance of giving our life to Christ doesn't stop there. We need to continue our walk with Christ to be able to have that over flowing joy even when temptations shall come, let that joy remain in us.

The perspective you give to repentance is important.
