Turning - Longing For Change -Psalm 51

Here is God's servent caught up in sins lust, adultery, murder and deceit David himself a man after God's own heart but like the rest of us having clay made feet David pleads for God to be merciful to remove all his iniquity blowing his fuse for he knows his failure and his sins against a God of purity being without excuse God calls for repentance that's real deep David turning from sin was so very real pleading for hyssop so he is purged like in Egypt years before the blood did heal David's confidence was in God alone so from sin, he would hide his face and David's iniquity he blotted out as God can with us in his blessed grace Real repentance needs to be continuance not just at conversion but every single day when we put off sin we must put on Christ so to grow we must die without delay PSALM 51(ESV)

Thanks Anne- Lise, Glad you loved it as indeed God's grace is always greater than our sin. Hope you're ok in Norway and surviving this heat, we're supposed to get the hottest day in history tomorrow in the UK but Scotland may be cooler. Blessings, Gordon
