Beloved–
Have mercy on me, O God, because of your unfailing love. Because of your great compassion, blot out the stain of my sins. Wash me clean from my guilt. Purify me from my sin. For I recognize my rebellion; it haunts me day and night. Against you, and you alone, have I sinned; I have done what is evil in your sight. You will be proved right in what you say, and your judgment against me is just. For I was born a sinner—yes, from the moment my mother conceived me. But you desire honesty from the womb, teaching me wisdom even there. Purify me from my sins, and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow. Oh, give me back my joy again; you have broken me— now let me rejoice. (from Psalms)
When I find that I have joyfully jumped into the pit of self righteousness, I get overwhelmed by my sin. But, the Lord God who is and by his grace provided solace through his word in the book of Psalms.
I pray for you daily that you seek the wisdom that comes from God’s word.
Luv Ya!
