For instance, we might find ourselves wanting to relate to our spouse and our children in a new way. We might develop a new desire to reach out to the poor or the sick. We might begin to suffer more over the murders, the abortions, and the injustices in the world. More than anything else, we might find our hearts reaching out to Jesus and loving him in a new and more profound way. Practice Repentance .
