Reflections

If we realise that we have some corruption in our hearts, what should we do? 
 

Repentance is the key step.  There must be a change of heart towards that corruption.  We must give it up and repent of it.  But we can only repent of what we are adequately aware of.  Often our awareness is limited and hence our repentance is limited.  Often, we may have only repented at a shallow level, leaving the root issue undealt with.  For we may think that since we have repented, that it is adequately completed. 

We must continue to go to God and His Word, so that the full extent of our issue may be revealed.  God will also work through His people to help us unearth it.  Like through counselling. God will unearth it over time, if we let Him.    
 

We should be willing to fully repent of everything that needs to be repented off.  Until it is completely dealt with. For God desires us to be without blemish.  So that we may offer our lives as a living sacrifice that is fully approved unto God.  Shall we seek that? 

1 John 1:9 (NIV) "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.
