“Then your next step must be to repent of it. And I don’t mean the cursory ‘I’m sorry’ that we let children get away with. You have to mean it, dear one. You have to regret not only the consequences but the sin itself. You must regret not just your own pain, but the grief you’ve caused.” ChristianSinSorryRepentanceChristian LivingConsequences Book:To Treasure an Heiress Source: To Treasure an Heiress
“And after the repentance, dearover, comes the truly hard part—you must learn how to let the shame go. It has its purpose, a right and needful one. It can take us to life and repentance and return us to God. But if we’re not careful, it can just as easily carry us away and drown us.… Guard against that. But only after you are once again clean.” Mam dipped her head down to catch Senara’s gaze. “Aye? You must take it to the Lord, Senara. And then let Him truly take it from you.” ChristianSinShameRepentanceChristian Living Book:To Treasure an Heiress Source: To Treasure an Heiress
