Morning Nourishment

This post has been stopped twice for some reason. Strange! First, it just clicked off and saved itself and then the laptop made one quick sound and it went black. It easily restarted so I don't know what that was about.

Anyway, the morning's reading in my Bible was Psalm 51-53 and these verses are some that have ministered to me over and over. This morning... they fed my spirit.

Be gracious to me, O God, according to Thy lovingkindness;

According to the greatness of Thy compassion blot out my trasngressions.

Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity,

And cleanse me from my sin.

Behold, Thou dost desire truth in the innermost being,

And in the hidden part Thou wilt make me know Thy wisdom.

Purify me with hyssop, and I shall be clean;

Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

Create in me a clean heart, O God,

And renew a steadfast spirit within me.

Do not cast me away from Thy presence,

And do not take Thy Holy Spirit from me.

Restore to me the joy of Thy salvation,

And sustain me with a willing spirit.

Then I will teach transgressors Thy ways,

And sinners will be converted to Thee.

O Lord, open my lips,

That my mouth may declare Thy praise.

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit;

A broken and contrite heart, O God,

Thou wilt not despise.

Psalm 51:1, 2, 6, 7, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15, & 17
