Repent for a sin, once.
Ask God to forgive that sin, once.
Thank God, a thousand times.

Here’s how forgiveness works:
+ I am a sinner.
+ I sinned.
+ I tell God my sin, specific.
+ I am sorry—I turn from my sin.
+ “God, forgive me.”
+ I am forgiven.
+”Thank You, Jesus.”
+ D O N E ! ! !

Now, move on, do what God gives you to do—thankful to be forgiven and free.

Please note this:
I said nothing about forgiving yourself.
God said nothing about forgiving yourself.
