I really don't know why, maybe it's sin in me. I willfully submit to God and want him to change my will into his will. I want him to shape me and mold me into what he truly created me to be. I completely agree with the notion that when you sin, let God know you're sorry. Let him know that you acknowledged that it happened and you want to change. I believe this with all my heart and I have no problem with it. However, when I hear the words repent from your sins it makes me want to throw up. Not even joking it really makes me gag like dude that's disgusting. It makes me think of the pharisees who were hypocrites. I don't know why I really really just don't like that word. I'd rather just say submit to God's will, acknowledge your wrongdoings and let GOD change you. It's really that simple. Do you really think you can change your sin nature on your own? When I hear the word repent that's automatically what I think it implies. Is it bad that I find this word so repulsive?
