we don't repent one time and we're good.
we repent constantly because we mess up and sin constantly.
our lives as human beings are full of sin.
that's like committing a crime, saying you're sorry and only dealing with the consequences the first time. if you do it again, you have to deal with it again.
it's perpetual.
it's repetitive.
if we could stop sinning, that would be ideal, but we can't because we're born with it ingrained.
(thanks Adam and Eve.)
but when we repent, fall to our knees and apologize to God every time we mess up (not always literally on ours knees, but during prayer, wherever we are, whatever time of day we are in), that's when forgiveness and grace abide!
abide in Christ and he will abide in you.
repent and your savior will gladly receive you.
