A – Acknowledge
To begin the repentance process, we must first realize that what we did was wrong and feel sorry that we did something that Heavenly Father does not approve of.
B – Beg for forgiveness
We need to ask forgiveness anyone we have wronged and especially ask forgiveness from Heavenly Father.
C – Correct any problem your actions may have caused
It is common that our sin may have caused some damage that needs repaired. For example, a stolen item needs to be paid for or someone with hurt feelings may need a hug.
D – Don’t do it again!
Arguable the most important step is don’t do it again. If you can learn to never repeat your sins than you are far ahead of most of us!
