Like all of us, David was both sinner and saint. I was amazed at how quickly things changed
for him in these chapters:
(+) I will be careful
how I act and will not sin by what I say.
(-) I became very angry inside … my anger burned.
(-) Lord …. Save me
from all my sins.
(-) Lord … leave me alone so I can be happy before I leave
and am no more.
(+) He lifted me out
of the pit of destruction, out of the sticky mud. He stood me on a rock and made my feet
steady. He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God.
(+) Lord, I will tell about Your goodness … My God, I want to do what You want. Your teachings are
in my heart.
(-) Lord, do not hold
back Your mercy from me … troubles have surrounded
me … my sins have caught me so that I cannot see a way to
escape. I have more sins than hairs on
my head …
(+) Please, Lord,
save me. Hurry, Lord to help me…. Lord,
because I am poor and helpless,
please remember me. You are
my helper and savior. My God, do not
wait.
(-) Lord have mercy.
Heal me, because I have sinned against You.
(+) I know You are pleased with me. Because I am innocent, You support me
and will let me be with You forever.
Father, like David I continually find myself close to You and suddenly separated from You because of my
sins. Like David, I ask Your forgiveness
and I cherish Your love for me. Help me to seek You more and to sin
less. I hate having to say I’m sorry so
much!
Your Brother In Christ,
Gary Ford
