Thought for the day

You will remember that we have seen sin defined in the Bible as independence: “whatsoever is not of faith is sin” (Romans 14:23), and attitude of “lawlessness” (1 John 3:4); what then does repentance involve? It involves stepping out of independence back in to dependence—and the measure of your repentance will be the measure of your dependence!

Every area of your life in which you have not learned to be dependent, is an area of your life in which you have not as yet repented.—The Mystery of Godliness, page 146
