I was basically confessing my self-righteousness and my self-centeredness.
I'm probably the only one on planet Earth who has this problem, that's why so many people are astonished.
I'm not as holy as them.


Yup, that's why i was astonished.

Repentance for me is not in trying to stop sinning, but trying to walk by faith, live by faith, walk after the Spirit, live by Christ, put on Christ.....and I've found my sins are being subdued in the process. I do it in peace, and in the power and love of Christ.

I can't imagine having to focus on not sinning, and doing it by will power. It would be a nightmare, and I would eventually call it quits.

That makes sense. And I call to remembrance that verse in 1 John 4 which says "perfect love casteth out fear." That verse paints a good picture of how sin gets removed.
