II Corinthians 7: Good Grief!

Did you know that there are different kinds of grief?  In II Corinthians 7, Paul discusses both "godly grief" and "worldly grief."

Godly grief: Grief that leads to repentance, a sorrow that motivates one to change, leading to salvation and life.  It brings no regret.

Worldly grief: A dead-end, literally.  It produces death.

What makes the difference between godly grief and worldly grief?  Precisely in what you do with it.  Grief can make you bitter - or better.  The choice is up to you!!
