A Smoky Mountain Hi.
The amount of sorry you feel for sin, can be calculated by your repentance, times the amount of the change you make, times the length of the change, divided by the times you revert to your old bad behaviors, when you are under duress.
Repentance , without change, means you are not sorry for your sin, but you are sorry for being caught.
A repentant person does not cling to being sorry, he changes instead.
Change is the single most obvious difference, that shows that repentance has taken place.
The reason that talk is so cheap is because supply exceeds demand.
Only, Godly sorrow, can lead to sainthood.
A Christian never takes a step the has not already been walked in; because, the Father of All, was there before they ever too that step. He is ever before a Christian, behind them, and with every Christian for every step.
Be loyal to to yourself and to those who have earned your loyalty.
Being loyal to a cause can be noble, being loyal to people is often celebrated, being loyal to the ones you love is what love is.
Being loyal to anyone any cause that is not of God is off limits to you as well.
Knowing what I believe, is one thing, staying faithful to what I believe, until it comes to pass, is quite another.
Love is faithful because that is the very nature of love.
Being a true friend means you have taken the time to shift through a lot of the sand to find the gold.
The most difficult lessons to accept are the one we learned but tried to forget. Perhaps it was the teacher, or the people involved, perhaps the circumstances surrounding the lesson, but the lesson was there to be learned.
Those lessons you have chosen to forget are bound to return, perhaps in another form, but they will return.
A Smoky Mountain HI
Here is a journey I make each day. Time flows on this side of eternity. I have aged as gracefully as reasonable as can be be expected, and yet feel not a day older in my mind. As I begin a life in the Smoky Mountains I hope you will share my journey as well. www.kleincabin.com
