Will: It means taking responsibility for one's actions and consciously choosing right from wrong.

Notice the implication of this verse. The Lord does not show mercy to those saints who conceal their sins and refuse to confess and forsake them. He deals in judgment, not mercy.

SIN is the only thing that separates man from God, that hides his face from us. If we want to do well, we must confess our sins and abandon them, God promised to show mercy to those that forsake their sins. Be sincere and honest at least with God!
