Today's Passage: Psalms 23-25

Do you ever feel like the Word of God is speaking directly to you in your time of need? While convicting and gently cleansing my soul, these three passages have done exactly that. I hope they will do the same for you. 

"Remember not the sins of my youth or my transgressions; according to Your steadfast love Remember me..." (Psalms 25:7) Essentially this is what we desire above all: God's forgiveness and an untainted window for Him to peer into our souls. We want God to see who we are not the evil things we do. Fortunately, this is not a problem for the creator of the universe. Unfortunately, our human nature still falls to sin and naturally there is great shame in this foolishness. Now, God works individually with us all to overcome our guilt but good news, never will God leave a willing hearted christian to rot away in their sin. For we who are saved by the grace of Jesus Christ, are not lost but led in the ways of righteousness. His rod and His staff are our comfort and there is safety in His care. When we surrender ourselves, He is faithful to save. For, "He leads the humble in what is right and teaches the humble His way." (Psalm 25:9) Praise the Lord!!! 

I encourage you to reread chapter 25. There is great wisdom in this passage. Let it reveal to you how the state of our hearts should be in avoiding the clenches of sin and thus resting in the arms of God. My joyous prayer are with you as you seek His wisdom. For when our eyes are ever towards the Lord, He will pluck our feet from the entangling nets below. (Psalm 25:15)
