Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Remorse is the pain of sin.
Remorse is a violent dyspepsia of the mind.
There is no refuge from memory and remorse in this world. The spirits of our foolish deeds haunt us, with or without repentance.
Each life is unique. But for all, repentance will surely include passing through the portal of humble prayer. Our Father in Heaven can allow us to feel fully the conviction of our sins. He knows the depths of our remorse. He can then direct what we must do to qualify for forgiveness.
Remorse sleeps during prosperity but awakes bitter consciousness during adversity.
Remorse, the fatal egg that pleasure laid.
Guilt: punishing yourself before God doesn't.
Remorse is virtue's root; its fair increase are fruits of innocence and blessedness.
The ineffable joy of forgiving and being forgiven forms an ecstasy that might well arouse the envy of the gods.
Repentance is accepted remorse.
