REFLECTION
In my reflection, I wrote, "Whenever I sin, the good in me always fights
back with a loud shout, "you did something wrong!". Then it manifests
itself into a sense of guilt that I should remorse or repent from my
wrongdoing. I will not feel comfortable until I have accepted my fault
and strive to avoid such sins from being committed again. This is the
good that is in me, the God who will never allow that I be separated
from Him."
GOD SPEAKS
Blessed is he whose fault is taken away, whose sin is covered. Blessed the man to whom the Lord imputes not guilt, in whose spirit there is no guile. (Ps 32:1-2)
Going through my Psalms reading, the Lord confirmed my thoughts
regarding the word "guilt". He then led me to a scriptural prayer that
is very similar to my personal reflection which reads, "Then I
acknowledged my sin to you, my guilt I covered not. I said, “I confess
my faults to the Lord,” and you took away the guilt of my sin." (Ps
32:5)
Lord, truly you know my thoughts even before I pray. I am just glad that your Spirit works in my mind and heart so that I can always be connected to you in my prayers and reflections. I claim your words today that "though deep waters overflow, they shall not reach me. You are my shelter; from distress you will preserve me; with glad cries of freedom you will ring me round." (Ps 32:6-7) With my love I ask and pray, in Jesus Name. Amen.
