Repentance is turning around 180 degrees from where you are going. Repentance has never been a popular thing to preach or practice, but it is a reality that can turn your world upside down for better not worse.
-Noah's message from the ark was not "Something good is going to happen to you."
-Amos was not confronted by the High Priest of Israel for proclaiming, "Confession is possession."
-Jeremiah was not put into the pit to preach, "Possibility thinking can move mountains."
-Daniel was not put into the lion's den for telling people, "I'm ok, you're ok!"
-John the Baptist was not forced to preach in the wilderness and eventually beheaded because he preached, "Smile, God loves you."
They all preached repentance.
Their message was turn around before it's too late-simple yet profound. Sometimes the road to progress is a matter of just turning your life around. You'll never know if it works unless you try.
