Summary

This quote emphasizes the distinction between being scared or frightened by one's sins and being truly humbled by them. It suggests that it is not enough for a person to merely feel scared or frightened by their wrongdoings; rather, true humility comes from acknowledging and deeply reflecting on the gravity of one's actions. It implies that true repentance and growth require introspection, remorse, and a genuine desire to change, rather than simply being afraid of the consequences.
