Though we are Sinners God will Cleanse us of Our Trespasses


Verses: Psalms 51: 1 - 19

Song inspired by the chapter:  Song has been uploaded from YouTube.com and is not my original.




My thoughts about the verses:

Think on this a moment all have sinned but one.  The only person that was without sin was Jesus.  Jesus came so that we would be free.  He lived a life without any transgressions.  He was spotless in the eyes of God.  Jesus was human like us.  Yet, he did something none of us he lived his life without ever going astray.

No matter how hard we try to not sin we will.  Our thoughts and deeds will lead us astray.   Our human nature will go against us.  People may never truly understand this but no matter how hard we try at some point in our life we will sin against God.  

It is hard to think back to that first moment when we sinned.  We may have told our parents a lie.  We may have taken a toy or something else that wasn’t our own.  We may have disrespected our parents.

We forget about all the little fibs that we tell.  We forget about the times we have told people what they wanted to hear even when it wasn’t the truth.   We forget about the times when people ask us how we are doing and we think we are doing them a favor by not sharing the truth.  We forget about the times that we tell people stories to make ourselves feel better.  We forget about all these little lies.

We forget about all the times that we desire something someone else has.  We get jealous over the new car someone is driving.  We get jealous over the new house that someone just moved into. We forget how we wish that we were with someone that is dating someone else.  We forget all this envious actions because they seem so small.

We forget about the times that we show dislike toward others.  We don’t like someone because they are different from us.  We dislike someone so bad that we wish they would just die.  We turn are eyes off of God and desire things of the world.  We forget about all these times that we should have showed love.

All these little things add up over time.  They may seem small to us but there are all sins in the eyes of God.  Yet, we have a God that loves us even though we do these things.  God loved us so much that the Beloved Son was sent so whosoever would believe would be set free.  Our God wants us to be one with us.  That desire is so great that the way back to God was provided for us.  Believing in Jesus is all we need to do to have all our transgressions, whether they be big or small, forgiven.

Prayer:

We praise you God for your love.  We thank you for the gift of the Beloved Son.  We lift up our hands in worship for the everlasting life you have given to us freely.  Dear God we ask that you forgive us for our transgressions. We ask that you walk with us daily so that we may live a true Christian life.  In the name of the Creator we pray.  Amen

Questions:


Have you accepted that you need God in your life?  Do you understand that you have transgressed against the will of God?  Have you asked God to forgive you from your iniquities?  Are you living the life of a true Christian?
