John,

Thank you for reposting, "Repentance Is Rare".

I ask myself, how rare is repentance in my life?

Is it sadly more often than not, me saying, "Sorry, sorry", to try and quickly take the heat off?

Saying, "Sorry", does not equate to repentance.

Sorrow is part of it, but not all of it:

II Corinthians 7:10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.

Also, how many of my, "Sorry, sorry", actually accompany godly sorrow?
