Realy?
How about Paul's response to "Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? 5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks."
And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?
And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.
Paul went into the city as he was commanded of the Lord and fasted! His obedience and his fasting are signs of a repentant heart. But the immediate response of "Lord, what wilt thou have me to do" shows an change of heart along with the trembling and astonishment.
What do you expect from someone who repents?
