Wherefore, my beloved brethren, I beseech of you in words of soberness that ye would repent, and come with full purpose of heart, and cleave unto God as he cleaveth unto you. And while his arm of mercy is extended towards you in the light of the day, harden not your hearts.
Even before we have repented and come unto Christ, he already is cleaving to us. He is already fully committed to save us. He is stuck to us, and he cannot shake us off. We tear ourselves away from him every day, however. And so the constant call to constant, wholehearted, sincere repentance. Our actions are never perfect, but our hearts can be right. A soft heart is a humble heart, even a broken heart, a heart that can be molded by God into a heart full of charity.
