Repentance is a gift from YAHUAH:
In John 6:44, Yahusha tells us this: No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.
Psalm 95:6-8 says: O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before YAHAUHA our maker. For he is our ALUAH; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. To day if ye will hear his voice, Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness:
When YAHUAH is speaking to you, do not ignore him. When he is opening the door and inviting you in, do not shut the door in his face.
It is his love that is drawing us. In his mercy he is reaching out to us, calling us to himself for our own good. We don't deserve his mercy and forgiveness, but in his goodness and compassion, he chooses to lay our transgressions aside, and invite us into his family, where he will cleanse us, make us new, raise us up, and send us out as a light in the earth.
Repentance is something to be grateful for, not something to brag about.
Shalum Shalum With Love to you all.
