Good Gracious God

I invite you to joyfully repent of your doubt in the goodness of God, trying to add something to Jesus, and point you back to the reality of the cross and the operation of the Holy Spirit. 

Repentance is the way back to the freedom in the gospel. 

Steve Brown said, ‘Repentance simply means agreeing with God about what needs to be changed in your life . . . 
Repentance means nothing more nor less than agreeing with God about who you are, what you have done, and what needs to be changed’ 

Steve Childers adds, ‘So repentance should not be seen as merely changing our external behavior but primarily as a willingness to pull our heart affections and our heart trust away from our idols’.
