This is from Martin Luther himself: "A penitent heart is a rare thing and a great grace; one cannot produce it by thinking about sin and hell. Only the Holy Spirit can impart it."
Repentance was the heart of Dr. Luther's teaching which comes from the very heart of God: "Search me, O God, and know my heart; try me, and know my thoughts; And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting." Psalm 139:24
What more can we say? We must always have a repentent heart before God and ready to go with Him to life everlasting. Are you repentent and ready?

Hi from Katie's Beer! Thanks for stopping by and saying hello. I've seen your name on comments and wondered who you are. I also LOVE Lucy and have for as long as I can remember. Very cool blog theme! So, do I know who your blogging husband is??? I'm so curious!
Yes, TK, you do know who my blogging husband is. He is "Mr. Humorous" himself. We sure have a lot of fun around our house!
