What is Contrition?
Contrition
1. Sincere remorse for wrongdoing; repentance.
2. Brokenness of spirit for having given offense; deep sorrow for sin; sincere penitence.
A central concept in much of Christianity, contrition is regarded as the first step, through Christ, towards reconciliation with God. Contrition is present when a human spirit stops justifying its wrong choices. A contrite heart offers no excuses and shifts no blame. It fully agrees with God about how wicked it is. Knowing that it deserves nothing but righteous wrath, a contrite heart throws itself upon the mercy of God (Isaiah 66:2; Psalm 41:4; Psalm 51:17).
