Hmm, I find myself needing to repent of my repenting discipline, having not engaged with it for ages!

My usual tactics here would be one of the following:

• Write the whole thing off as a failure (or rather, call myself a failure) and give up completely.
• Decide I need to make up for where I’ve fallen short by filling in everything that I’ve failed at. In this case, I feel like I ought to have at least 5 posts ready to publish before starting again.
• Because the second option is too hard and overwhelming, do nothing and therefore default to the first option through inaction.

And all of this gets covered in a lovely blanket of guilt and self-condemnation!

But if Repentance is about allowing my mindset to be altered and stepping out into a new thing, then I want to change the way I repent too!

So here I am. 

I receive all of the Goodness of God in the places where I’ve judged  myself to be Not Good. And I choose to start here and now with a tiny step, which will be followed by another and then another and then (I hope) more and more.
