Many times when I sinned against God, I was just stucked at the feeling of guilt and feeling all disappointed with myself but I didn't believe that God can change something evil into something good.

Just like the prodigal son, God wants us to come back to His embrace each time we fail because He is a compassionate Father. He is filled with joy each time we go back to Him and He celebrates our return(:

So don't be afraid of meeting failures, don't be afraid to make mistakes. Just repent and God will forgive us. It is only at times when we fail, that we learn and change for the better. It is only when we fail that we can taste the mercy and love of our Father(:
"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness." 1 John 1:9


The repentance and belief model (A passionate life)

The 3 stages of repentance:
Observe- Observe your reactions that is ungodly
Reflect- Reflect upon the cause of you reacting this way (emptiness/insecurities etc)
Discuss- Get people involved. Discussion and asking qns are parts of learning

The 3 stages of belief:
Plan- We sin usually is because we have used someone or something as a substitute for God. Thus we need to plan a strategy for recognizing the feelings that lead us to embrace that behaviour so that you can react in a proper way. i.e if shopping is our habit, make a plan to only buy necessities and let God fill the emptiness.
Account-For the plan to be effective, we need at least 1 person to hold accountable to it cos it's easy to cheat if no one else knows.
Act-Faith comes to the surface and produces action! (:

Repentance and belief is the way to the kingdom! (:
