Now change your mind and attitude to God and turn to him so he can cleanse away your sins and send you wonderful times of refreshment from the presence of the Lord. — Acts 3:19 (TLB)

There is a certain amount of sorrow involved in repentance that we don’t see much of today. That word means moaning and even groaning. I don’t mean that we have to have a great emotional experience, but I do believe that we need some tears of repentance.

Defining Your Life by Pastor David Ibiyeomie

When you lack mission and purpose in life, others will define your life for you. You cannot wake up in the morning and start moving from one place to another without direction and definition of what your day will be. When your life lacks definition, you will spend it doing irrelevant things, making unending irrelevant calls and embarking on roller-coaster visitations to places you are not welcomed; that is selling off the future.
