So, I haven't been very good at blogging lately, but I hope to try and do better. There is too much to update on, so I will share my good news! I have FINALLY memorized all of Psalm 32!!! I feel super accomplished. Next, after I finish my research on Psalm 32, I am going to memorize Psalm 51.
Why you may ask? Well it is believed that Psalm 51 is the precursor to Psalm 32. First one must acknowledge their sin, Psalm 51, and then that person must ask God's forgiveness, Psalm 32. These two Psalms sum up the beginning steps to a Christian life, and they are a summary of my life.
And how awesome is that!? God did not only tell us that we had to ask for forgiveness for our sins throughout the Bible, but he specifically gave us an example of one of His own servants, David that is, that failed completely but was accepted back into the flock when he repented of his sins. What hope that gives to us sinners today! God loves us enough to forgive our past, no matter the sin, and then welcome us back into His kingdom.
And that is why I am memorizing Psalms 32 & 51, for they are my constant reminder that I have failed and fallen short of God's glory, Romans 3:23, but my true repentance has given me a second chance to prove that this time I am going to live sold out only to Him!
