/*"For I know my transgressions, and my sin is always before me." --
Psalm 51:3*/
Sometimes it seems that God's eyesight has gone bad. Doesn't He see what
a rotten sinner I am? Why would He want to hang around me?
In this passage, David has fallen from great heights to horrible depths.
Others have gone lower, but they started lower. Few in history have
fallen the distance David fell.
It took him by surprise, as sin often does. He had no idea what was in
his heart, until he was trapped by the inescapable reality of what he
had done.
For most of us, finding the courage to look at who we really are, and
where we are really at, doesn't come until we are forced to do so by the
consequences of our own terrible choices. The alcoholic never predicts
where that first time drink will lead.
Here's the good news. God knows everything about you and me. Everything
that haunts us, everything we try to hide - He knows it all. Yet He
still loves us with a love that can be measured by the blood of His own
Son.
Can you see nothing but your own failings? Then run blindly into the
arms of God. He will make you clean.
Be encouraged!
Dwight
