Psalm 130 Verses 1-4

¹ Out of the depths I cry to you, Lord;
²     Lord, hear my voice.
Let your ears be attentive
    to my cry for mercy.

³ If you, Lord, kept a record of sins,
    Lord, who could stand?
⁴ But with you there is forgiveness,
    so that we can, with reverence, serve you.

Guilt is a terrible thing. It is so easy to hurt someone and so easy to remember that hurt, For some reason that guilt sticks with you. It doesn’t have to be something terrible. It may just be something we didn’t do that bothers us. God, however, does not remember those errors in our choices. He washes them away because of his redeeming love. Then we can move on to follow the path of Jesus and be God’s hands in the world.

Prayer: Forgiving God, you love us without judgment. Your love washes us clean and prepares us for the journey ahead.
