The first stage of repentance is admitting one's own sins. When we condemn our own sins the Lord will always forgive us. Furthermore, condemning our own sins makes us less likely to commit them again. We must also stop dwelling on those who have done us harm, or our enemies. We must control our anger and forgive other's sins against us. "For if you forgive your debtors, your heavenly Father will forgive you."
We must also constantly pray from our hearts and be willing to practice charity at all times. We should strive to live a modest, humble life in the Lord. We are always capable of forgiving, being humble, praying and condemning our own sins.
Let us always strive to turn back to the Lord.
In Christ,
Rev. Jeffery A. Fasching
