Repent means start doing the things that you know you should do. If
you are alienated from somebody, be reconciled.
If you are self-righteous in relation to others, humble yourself.
If you have been uncaring toward the poor, now is the time to
get some moral imagination and put yourself in the plight of another human being.
If you have been callous about prospects for peace in the world, now is
the time for you to start praying and begin working for those things in your
own neighborhood that make for peace.
If you have put your trust in the accumulation of things so that you
are slave to a whole host of masters, now is the time for you to unload
some of the stuff and to put your trust in God.
And if you assumed to this point that you are going to be judged on
your ability to avoid evil in this life, this is the time for you to hear
that you are going to be judged on your courage to do the good.
