As the Summer of Psalms series is continued, Bill looks at Psalm 25. As we look at the Psalms, we find that even before we know the thoughts of our hearts, we find them in the book of Psalms. Psalm 25 is a prayer; petitions to God intermingled with praise for who God is. As we look at this particular Psalm, we see David's spiritual and personal vulnerability. We also see our own. David is confused and he turns to God. To you oh Lord I lift up my soul. What confidence did David have that God would hear and respond to his prayer. David's confidence was in God; his confidence was in the Covenants. God himself is the keeper of the Covenants. In love, God delights in saving us. And in love, God delights in hearing our prayers. We know that God will hear our prayer because of Jesus, because of the cross. Thanks be to God.
