(19) Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord…
I had an appointment one day, and I just happened to be running late. For those that know me, I hate being late for anything! What made it worse; I didn’t know the area that well so I was already a little lost. When I saw the street, it was too late to get over to make the turn. I then drove down the street for what seemed like an eternity looking for somewhere to make a U-turn. Every stop light had that annoying sign: No U-Turn Allowed…
The Bible tells us that anyone can be saved, as long as they confess their sins, or repent. I was always taught that to repent meant to turn 180 degrees, to make a u-turn, and to go the other way. It’s awesome how the Bible promises that our sins will be wiped away, that there will be a time of refreshing which comes from the Lord. All we have to do is confess, and make that u-turn!
