Repentance isn't a "one and done" activity that took place at our baptisms. Rather, it is ongoing. It is a gift from God, a process of examining ourselves, searching for those areas that don't match up to Christ, then turning from our wrong ways to His right Way. The Spring Holy Days offer a tangible picture of self-examination and repentance as we search for physical leaven to put out of our homes. This physical process should point us to the spiritual process of self-examination that we should all be partaking.
