Repentance and Confession of Sin Leads to Peace of Mind
Maybe you feel the heavy load of past sins weighing you down and you feel you have more than you can bear. The Lord offers the remedy: “Repent you, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord” (Acts 3:19). “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word has no place in our lives” (1 John 1:9,10). “As a result, you will have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ” (Rom 5:1).
In the 23rd Psalm, David expresses his confidence in God. He gives a very descriptive message of the peace he experienced. This peace and fellowship is for all those who have vital companionship with the Shepherd.
