3 things about repentance

1. godly sorrow

this grieve is a godly one, it's the work of the Holy Spirit

-how proud, stubborn we are, based on our own strength.. and it's filthy rag to God.. which can in turn destroy ourselves

-the Holy Spirit tells exactly what we need to change

-the Satan condemns, shame and put us down

2. change of mind

-we need to change ourselves

-we tend to do things for ourselves.. now we need to change our thinking

change of mind, + we need to turn from darkness to light in Jesus

the father love his son even if his son is disrespectful, wanted to get his share for his father's inheritance

the son squandered his wealth and am left with nothing

the son changed his mind

-his son turned his ways in repentance

-his father is waiting for his son to come back.. Just like God is waiting for us to repent and return to Him

-if we repent, we will experience the goodness of God

-the older bro is with anger and bitterness..

-it is not how hard we work, how senior... It's the relationship that matters!

repentance is for all and it's a daily thing!

-we may be able to hide our little sins, but God knows them all!

   -one day it will snowball into something evil

-the Holy Spirit convicts us little by little..

   -by the power of the Spirit, we can overcome

-don't end up like the elder brother, being angry

   -he was just as lost as the younger bro.. he is just good at covering up through busyness in life

-if we are older, don't be complacent

-if we are younger, don't be condemned
