Devotional
Repentance isn’t just about feeling sorry for our mistakes – it’s about embracing our true identity as God’s beloved children. When we understand that God’s love for us is already complete and unchanging, repentance becomes less about earning forgiveness and more about accepting who we already are in Him. It’s like walking through a doorway into a new way of living, where we’re defined not by our past actions but by His present love. This is the beautiful journey of transformation that God invites us into each day.
Bible Verse
“No! I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.” – Luke 13:3
