Let your ears be attentive
to my cry for mercy. If you, Lord, kept a record of sins,
Lord, who could stand? But with you there is forgiveness,
so that we can, with reverence, serve you. I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits,
and in his word I put my hope. I wait for the Lord
more than watchmen wait for the morning,
more than watchmen wait for the morning. (Psalm 130:1-6 NIV)
Thankfully God does not keep a record of our sins! His forgiveness allows us, with reverence, to serve God. It's funny how the Old Testament is black and white with right and wrong until David - David brings another side of God ...interesting??? The scripture says that his heart was after God. Did he know God differently??
"So that" and "reverently" are standing out to me. I must serve him. Less of me , more of you God!!
Well said and a blessing.
