Psalm 32
Stu McGregor

Jesus’ favour is shown when He let’s go of our fault and chooses to connect us to Him again.

Jesus’ favour is shown when He erases our wrongdoing nature and our dishonesty to ourselves, our world and Jesus.

I was quiet about my disconnect. And it consumed me from the inside out. I silently whined in my agony all day. I felt your hand Jesus, pressing gently and mercifully upon me, and I buckled under it’s weight. I became lethargic in my struggle.

Pause and Reflect.

I exposed my innermost being to you. I said “I’m gonna make right with Jesus by voicing my shame and guilt. I’ll say it all this time...lay it all to bare.” And all of it, in one fell swoop, all of it you forgave.

Pause and Reflect.

So if you are a follower of Jesus—offer him prayer. When you feel like it’s all about to fall apart, pray and it will all come into context.

Jesus you are a safe place, always available : you keep me from trouble and soothe me with the testimony of your faithfulness to others.

Pause and Reflect

Jesus says, “I’ll give you the help you need! I’ll teach you how to make good and right choices, but I won’t just send you on your way, I’ll stick with you through it all!

“But don’t be stubborn or self-centered. Horses and donkeys need to be controlled by their master, and often it’s against their will. I don’t want that so I won’t stay near you if you buck under my tutorage.”

When I’m wicked, I’m tormented. But unbelievable love that just cannot give up surrounds me when I trust in Jesus.

We must rejoice now! For we are made right with him! Shout about it! We are a clean slate and testimony to Jesus’ Mercy!
