Isaiah 1:18 “Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.“
In Mosiah 26:29 we are taught, “Therefore I say unto you, Go; and whosoever transgresseth against me, him shall ye judge according to the sins which he has committed; and if he confess his sins before thee and me, and repenteth in the sincerity of his heart, him shall ye forgive, and I will forgive him also.”

What Repentance Means to Me
Why Repentance Is a Joyful Choice
“The fact that we can repent is the good news of the gospel,” Elder Dale G. Renlund explains. He taught that repentance is a choice that will lead us to joy. Too many times we allow our emotions to get in the way of repentance feeling we are not good enough or we have done something that is too big, or it has been too long to receive forgiveness, so why try?” SEE THE “Why Repentance Is a Joyful Choice” VIDEO below to continue . . .
Feeling the Father’s Love
One of the supreme beauties of the gospel of Jesus Christ is how much He and our Father in Heaven love us. They are not far away but ever ready to receive us. They desire our happiness and joy. Sometimes it helps to ask yourself if you were in the position of our Father in Heaven, how would you respond to a person who is sincerely trying to repent? Like any loving parent, you would be eager to forgive and receive them back.
We are taught in Alma 12:24 that this time on earth is a probationary time; a time to prepare to meet God. So, one of the joys of life is to correct mistakes and sins; to learn with each error how to live better, how to grow and become more like our Father in Heaven and one day return to His presence. Repentance is a good thing.
