I have been reading Humility, by Andrew Murray (as a result of the leading of God) and have been encouraged by these words:<br /><br />"Believer, study the humility of Jesus! This is the secret, the hidden root of thy redemption. Sink down deeper into it every day. Believe with thy whole heart that this Christ, whom God has given thee, even as His divine humility wrought the work for thee, will enter in to dwell and work within thee too, and make thee what the Father would have thee be."<br /><br />Oh, that He would work in all of His children, a desire for and a heart full of humility.<br /><br />Many blessings to you, sweet sister.<br />SarahSarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04455698547207302964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1674863270172495413.post-56924561981713103812009-11-06T10:22:53.201-08:002009-11-06T10:22:53.201-08:00Thank you so much for this.

Answer: R...Question: What is repentance unto life?<br /><br />Answer: Repentance unto life is a saving grace, whereby a sinner, out of a true sense of his sin and apprehension of the mercy of God in Christ, doth, with grief and hatred of his sin, turn from it unto God, with full purpose of and endeavor after new obedience.<br /><br />So says the Westminster Shorter Catechism.<br /><br />"A saving grace." God alone can awaken repentance. That's how sleepy our consciences are. We need the smelling salts of the gospel waved under our noses to wake us up. Most of the sins we commit we don't notice. We might even feel good about them at the time.<br /><br />"Out of a true sense of his sin . . . with grief and hatred of his sin." Not just embarrassment over getting caught but sorrow over offending the Father. Self-assurance dissolves into self-hatred. A new thought enters in: "I hate my heart."<br /><br />"Apprehension of the mercy of God in Christ." If we suspect that God despises us for our sins, we will have no incentive to turn back to him. It is the kindness of God that leads us to repentance. The Father rejoices to honor his prodigals. This truth sets us free to repent.<br /><br />"Turn from it unto God." We don't make ourselves better first. We just turn, we turn back to God, spattered with our filth. It is God himself to whom the penitent go. Not to deeper self-fixation but to the all-merciful Father God. We fall into his arms.<br /><br />"With full purpose of and endeavor after new obedience." Not "Oh, I'm so broken," with no follow-through, no change. "Brokenness" can be an excuse for inaction. True repentance gets traction for "new obedience," unprecedented obedience, bold new steps in obeying the Bible we've never taken before, such that our family and friends start wondering, "What's gotten into him?"Ikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09595879576794400791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1674863270172495413.post-53629890252531622402009-11-04T12:18:48.876-08:002009-11-04T12:18:48.876-08:00That was beautiful Sarah Dawn.

My heart has been broken too many times and as a result I've covered it in layers of self protection. But as I shared with you, the Lord is slowly peeling them away. It's hard but He is trustworthy with our hearts. I know that and am learning that.<br /><br />Love to you,<br />Debbie<br /><br />PS I echo Jill, is it February yet?Debbie Petrashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08235978883396499354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1674863270172495413.post-14111061532851226512009-11-04T03:26:40.304-08:002009-11-04T03:26:40.304-08:00Precious friend - how I pray these words meet with...Precious friend - how I pray these words meet with every aching heart that needs the truth!<br /><br />He will meet everyone of us in the quiet moments. He is there! He longs to be with us and is so eager to welcome us for the first time and back every time we slip away. He is beyond faithful and merciful! His grace covers us and His love washes a multitude of sins away.<br /><br />In the deepest moments when we can no longer see between Him and us - His Spirit takes over and we become one!
