Every Sin Calls For True Repentance

Then when Judas, his betrayer, saw that Jesus was condemned, he changed his mind and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and the elders, saying, "I have sinned by betraying innocent blood." They said, "What is that to us? See to it yourself." And throwing down the pieces of silver into the temple, he departed, and he went and hanged himself.  Matthew 27:3-5  ESV.

Dear Heavenly Father it hurts you when i sin against you for i have been bought by the precious blood of Jesus. May i be sensitive to the Holy Spirit's prompting and leading especially in subtle moments of temptation. Teach me to walk in the Spirit and not to succumb to the desires of the flesh. May i learn to truly repent, seek your forgiveness, and forsake the wrongdoing whenever i do sin against you. Let there be evidence of the fruit of repentance. I thank you for your grace, the empowered strength, to live daily with purity of heart, purpose in living, and power in serving. In Jesus' wonderful name i pray.
