Lord, 

Thank you for placing psalm 51 and 52 back-to-back. What a great representation of the repentant process! What a wonderful representation of your redemptive love!

We come to you with repentant hearts, knowing we cannot redeem ourselves. We come humbly before you knowing we will come again. We need you constantly. 

Then, after our repentance, our confidence soars! Our God has cleansed us! He has redeemed us! If he is with us, who could be against us?

We cling to you, Lord, and you have designed it so. 

Make our hearts forever be sensitive to the convictions of the spirit.

Amen
