STOP SIN SHAMING!!!!

STOP SIN SHAMING PEOPLE INTO REPENTANCE!!!!!!!!

We all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.  Romans 3:Twenty-three

This is not as hard as people may make it seem. To repent is to sincerely  seek forgiveness for any wrongs you may have done towards yourself and \or someone else  (this can be conscious and\or subconscious).  and change from your previous ways . Repentance is a choice to change not a blame game. True repentance happens when conviction through love  is present, not condemnation.  Repentance should direct us away from sin leading us to follow and emulate the character of Jesus Christ.

When we repent, we are taking responsibility for our actions leading us to seek change. This act should be done from a sincere and truly remorseful heart ( not motivated by fear  or manipulation but through the act of love) , not blaming anyone else but taking full responsibility of our actions and it's consequences.  When we do this, we are choosing to learn from your mistakes instead of making excuses for them leaving us to remain the same.  Remember: Sin is a behavior, it not who you are. It's not your identity. It can be changed.

Sin is a behavioral problem and \or pattern that does not produce good in our life. It's  birth from generational curses (past down mindsets and behaviors) peer pressure,  and  repeated mistakes  with little to no consequences. But the good news is ......sin can be changed by  becoming aware of our actions and it's affect on ourselves as while as  others, directing us to seek forgiveness ( make a habit of practicing this one) and repent (changing your mind from your previous ways). Simply put: if you wronged someone, put your pride aside and apologize and accept the fact that you may make mistakes so forgive yourself often.

So to take the negative connotation away,  Repentance is simply changing our mind about our previous behaviors, choosing to patterning our character after Jesus Christ while allowing room for Him to change our hearts to reflect His  in the process . #doingheartwerk
