Quote:
Is your spirit unhappy? Are you cast down under your sins, multitudes
of sins, years of sins? As heavily burdened as your are, and pierced
through with sorrows, you can look to God, and hope, for "HE delights
in mercy." His mercy can make you a clean and beautiful, a happy and
rejoicing spirit. God will be "delighted" to make you "equal to the angels."
So humble, so loving is God, and so earnestly does He long to bless you,
that behold, He stands at your door and knocks. ~ John Pulsford {adapted}
Revelation 3:20
"Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice
and opens the door, I will come in to him and will dine with him,
and he with Me."
Prayer:
My Lord,
No matter how deep my sins, Your grace and mercy is deeper still.
There is no limit to Your forgiveness. You are always willing to wash
me whiter than wool. Today I surrender all to You that You may make
me a clean, beautiful, happy and rejoicing soul. Amen.
