Of all the holy acts that go against our grain as fallen humans, the strongest may well be admitting we are wrong, that we need forgiveness, whether from God or our spouse. Yet no other act is so powerful in coming to terms honestly with our sin. Admitting to wrong calls down the mercy of Christ from the very throne of grace. This actions restores our heart in love. Admission of wrongdoing sets us free to give and receive love when we unlock the door, fling it open unconditionally to God and others.
Bargaining with God is not possible. We must surrender ourselves to Him unconditionally. Give Him everything. He will give you back far more.
