Psalms 40:12
Please read that verse again slowly and think about it.
Our sinfulness should be shocking to us sometimes! To honestly accept how wicked we are, is so important if we want to know the Lord better.
It’s true, that when I acknowledge and “own” my sin, when I admit that I can be so selfish, self-centred, among many things, “my heart faileth me”
Hosea 7.14
What a most interesting picture this verse gives us!
“And they have not cried unto me with their heart, when they howled upon their beds:”
It reminds me of the time wicked King Ahab didn’t get his way, so he went home and went to bed pouting!
“...when they howled upon their beds:”
Psalm 143.1
Here are five words – a prayer to God! Sometimes I am praying just a short prayer like this! “Hear my prayer, O LORD” and it helps the rest of my prayers. It reminds me of how important it is to just get started, and pray… “if ye seek him, he will be found of you” 2 Chronicles 15:2
Matthew 3.17
How often are we reminded that we have a heavenly Father?
Probably not often enough.
Whatever our relationship with our earthly father was or is – there is a heavenly Father who seeks to guide us, help us, and fellowship with us. Our heavenly Father who wants to say, “This is my beloved (child) in whom I am well pleased.”
