Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation without regret, but worldly sorrow brings death. — 2 Corinthians 7:10

Worldly sorrow works death — you see it in ahithophel's despair and a crushed spirit that dries up the bones. But Christ came for the brokenhearted, and he says, "come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden". The Gospel meets you in your despair with healing. Let Christ turn your death-dealing sorrow into repentance that leads to life.
