Repentance

Repentance includes remorse for inward corruption and sin. Repentance is not only remorse. It is a change of mind and heart about sin and righteousness and about Christ. It is a turning from the broken cisterns of the world to the fountain of life. But part of that change of mind is remorse for failure to love God and be holy.

John Piper, Brothers We Are Not Professionals, p. 120
