Contrite heart





There was a good article over at Desiring God last month about what repentance means.  Matt Erbaugh wrote, "We can view sin as a failure of performance rather than a failure of intimacy."  How typically I ride on the performance carousel rather than enjoying affectionate intimacy with God.




"The more we see God as glorious and holy, the more we will see sin as something to weep over.  Repentance is less about feeling bad over behavior, and more about feeling awe and delight towards God."




God, give me such a heart.
