Day 27

Psalm 51:9-12 9 Hide your face from my sins, and blot out all my iniquities. 10 Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. 11 Cast me not away from your presence, and take not your Holy Spirit from me. 12 Restore to me the joy of your salvation,and uphold me with a willing spirit.

Meditative thoughts:
In what ways does Jesus make this prayer possible?
Reflect on the connection joy has with how God deals with my sin?

Psalm 102:23-28

23 He has broken my strength in midcourse;
he has shortened my days.
24 “O my God,” I say, “take me not away
in the midst of my days--
you whose years endure
throughout all generations!”
25 Of old you laid the foundation of the earth,
and the heavens are the work of your hands.
26 They will perish, but you will remain;
they will all wear out like a garment.
You will change them like a robe, and they will pass away,
27 but you are the same, and your years have no end.
28 The children of your servants shall dwell secure;
their offspring shall be established before you.

God weakens our strength and shortens our days, but He does not do so in order to destroy us, but to cause us to trust only in Him. The afflictions of the one who belongs to the Lord are many, but they all, without exception, are designed by Him to keep us in the faith. He who laid the foundation of the earth and created the heavens, will endure forever. The Lord is the same, and His years have no end. Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever. In what appeared to be weakened strength, He crushed the head of the Serpent on the cross, demonstrating His power over sin and death.

Lord, keep us strong in You. Amen
