Retrospection Should Lead to Repentance
Scripture
KJV
Surely it is meet to be said unto God, I have borne chastisement, I will not offend any more: that which I see not teach thou me: if I have done iniquity, I will do no more.
ESV
“For has anyone said to God, ‘I have borne punishment; I will not offend any more; teach me what I do not see; if I have done iniquity, I will do it no more’?
Job 34:31-32
Poem
In thought, in will, in word and deed,
What evils have I done,
Against the God of grace and love,
His Spirit and his Son!
