"Therefore now amend your words and doings and obey the voice of the Lord your God..." Jeremiah 26:13
Most God loving Christian adults know in our hearts the difference between right and wrong in regards to decisions we are making, actions we are taking, words we are speaking, etc. Therefore, if there is parts of our lives that we know aren't right, especially in the eyes of God, then it is of utmost - sometimes the difference between life and death - that we make some changes - fast!
For instance, I can get on the band wagon of gossip very easily, and it only takes a second to know it is not right. Thankfully, I've become more mature in Christ, so I've begun to quickly jump off and repent. What about you? What is something that you find yourself doing that you know isn't right in the sight of God? Whatever it is, God is quick to forgive, so jump off the bandwagon of sin, repent for your wrongs, and let Him cover you with His saving grace..."In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength..." (Acts 17:11).
So, make sure to get right with the Lord, make amends where necessary, and then let His covering of forgiveness take you over. Not only will you become more mature in Him, you will feel renewed and revived, enabling you to proceed into the next blessed dimension of your life, growing closer and closer to Him everyday - halleluiah.
