The burden of sin is enormous. But when we choose to seek repentance, we receive mercy. 

Galatians 5:24-25 stats this beautiful way to get rid of the heavy weight of sin and sinful lifestyle. The verse is given below in 3 versions of the Bible. Read these verses twice prayerfully.

He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy. (Version KJV)
If you cover up your sin you’ll never do well. But if you confess your sins and forsake them, you will be kissed by mercy. (version TPT)

We should trust in God. We are neither to trust in man nor riches nor our selves.
Jeremiah 17:5-8 conveys this powerfully and effectively below.

5 This is what the Lord says:
“Cursed are those who put their trust in mere humans,
who rely on human strength
and turn their hearts away from the Lord.
6 They are like stunted shrubs in the desert,
with no hope for the future.
They will live in the barren wilderness,
in an uninhabited salty land.

It’s important to have self-control. Control ones emotions and actions. This speaks about a verse person.

Proverbs 25:28 speak about this. The verses are given in 3 versions from the Bible.KJV He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls.

AMP He who is slow to anger is better and more honorable than the mighty [soldier], And he who rules and controls his own spirit, than he who captures a city.
ESV A man without self-control is like a city broken into and left without walls.
