7 Responses to Love-Repentance

This message challenges us to explore the true meaning of repentance and its connection to God's love. In Matthew 4:17, Jesus calls us to 'Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near.' We're reminded that repentance isn't just about feeling sorry, but about changing direction - leaving behind what holds us back and moving towards God. The story of the rich young ruler serves as an example of how our attachments can prevent us from fully embracing God's call. This message encourages us to reflect on what we might need to 'leave behind' to follow Jesus more closely. Are we running towards God or away from Him in our daily lives? By aligning our hearts with God's love and responding to His call for repentance, we can experience the nearness of heaven right here on earth. This transformative journey invites us to discover the joy, peace, and purpose that comes from putting God first in every aspect of our lives.
