Repentance is the only solution to sin. The mistreatment of widows worldwide is not pleasing to God. Both governments and religious organizations must fight to restore the rights and benefits of widows from those who harm them. Yet, God is inviting them to turn away from their wrongdoing. This is a great chance to seek forgiveness and reconcile with God as a widow. Time is running out, so take advantage of this opportunity while it’s still available.
“Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon”
(Isaiah 55:6-7).

“Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil; Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieves the oppressed, judge the fatherless, and plead for the widow. Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land: But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it”
(Isaiah 1:16-20).
Repentance involves a complete change of mind and behavior, away from wrongdoing and towards righteousness. Upon repenting, the sinner renounces sin and completely turns away from it. By committing to God and remaining steadfast in following His teachings, the repentant sinner can expect God to bring positive change and help overcome challenges.
