 MARCH 19 Remorse Due to Sin |
PRAYER. My conscience tells me, O Lord, when I have offended You. Let this prompting be cause for seeking Your forgiveness. |
|
IS not the pain of a bad conscience different
from any other pain that we know? Can that
pain be compensated by the wages of sin, or
rather, does it not remain distinctly perceptible in the midst of them?
The pain which it inflicts on us is a sort of indication how God regards, and will one day visit, all sins, according to the sure word of Scripture. |
