David had made the most hideous of decisions.

 

He had betrayed his morals.

He had betrayed his men.

And, most despairingly, he had betrayed God.

 

From a porch in the high castle, he had let his eyes fall upon beauty that was not meant for him.  And that beauty led him to do something terrible.

 

He had slept with another man’s wife.

He had tried to cover it up by sending her husband into battle.

He had allowed her husband to be killed.

 

The perfect cover up.

 

But God…..

 

God knows.

 

He knows what David did.

And he knows what all of us have done.

 

I am fully aware of this this very morning.  I have simply, if you look through a magnifying glass, at everything about me, FAILED.  But God……

 

God’s grace is so amazing.

It HEALS.

It INSPIRES.

It COMPELS.

It COMES WITH NO GUILT.

 

We can simply do what David did and go to Him and hit reset.  Look—-this verse is RESET:

 

Psalm 51 10 Create in me a pure heart, O God,

and renew a steadfast spirit within me.

11 Do not cast me from your presence

or take your Holy Spirit from me.

12 Restore to me the joy of your salvation

and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.

 

If we are truly surrendered to God, we have to let ourselves reset to Him, and let Him lavish His grace on us and reset us.

 

Because if you are like me (and 1 John 1:8 ASSURES me that you are!) we can stand up and fix things that God wants to fix—-and we do not have to be ashamed about it!

 

Hallelujah!  Hallelujah! Hallelujah! 

 

Because that, my friends, is the gospel of Jesus Christ that we all so desperately need.

 

And we can say, with great confidence, 

 

God Is Not Done With Me………Yet!

Hebrews 10 14because by one sacrifice he has made perfect forever those who are being made holy.

 

In The Name of the Father and the 

Son and the Holy Spirit.  Amen.

 

Create In Me A Clean Heart O God

And Renew A Right Spirit In Me
