I want to share some great quotes on repentance that have had me thinking lately. These quotes come from the Puritan preacher Thomas Watson (1620-1686). Meditate on these words the next time you say you are sorry for your sin.
"God loves a broken heart, not a divided heart." - The Upright Man's Character
"Many think they repent when it is not the offense but the penalty that troubles them." - The One Thing Necessary
"Every pardon a sinner hath is written in Christ's blood." - The Christian's Charter
"Godly sorrow shows itself to be ingenuous because when a Christian knows that he is out of the gun-shot of hell and shall never be damned, yet still he grieves for sinning against that free grace which has pardoned him." - The Doctrine of Repentance
For I will declare my iniquity; I will be in anguish over my sin.Psalm 38:18 (NKJV)
