I'm working my way through AP, though, at your suggestion!<br /><br />For me, if I'm honest with myself, the more convicting/powerful verse is the 2nd:<br /><br /><i>I repent, I repent of parading my liberty<br />I repent, I repent of paying for what I get for free<br />And for the way I believe that I am living right<br />By trading sins for others that are easier to hide<br />I am wrong and of these things I repent</i><br /><br />It's a struggle not to rationlize, to use my God given reason, and instead balance it with God's mystery and grace. Or, put another way, it's hard to make repentence (and turning) more about my trust in God's grace and power instead of about what I do/think on any given day.Jeremyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03507874062503931824noreply@blogger.com
