Psalm 25

Had a difficult last two days and have been reflecting on this Psalm. Thank you Lord for your word, for it gives me great comfort and strength! What would I do with you, my God, My Father, My comforter. You are my soul's joy





To you O Lord, I lift up my soul;

In you I trust, O my God
Do not let me be put to shame,
Nor let my enemies triumph over me.
No one whose hope is in you
Will ever be put to shame...

Show me your ways, O Lord
Teach me your paths;
Guide me in your truth and teach me,
for you are God my Saviour
and my hope is in you all day long
Remember O Lord, your great mercy and love..

Remember not the sins of my youth and my rebellious ways;
according to your love remember me
for you are good O Lord
Good and upright is the Lord;
therefore he instructs sinners in his ways
He guides the humble in what is right
and teaches them his way
All the ways of the Lord are loving and faithful
for those who who keep the demands of his covenant
For the sake of your name Lord
forgive my iniquity though it is great......

The Lord confides in those who fear him;
he makes his covenant known to them
My eyes are ever on the Lord,
for only he will release my feet from the snare
Turn to me, and be gracious to me,
for I am lonely and afflicted
The troubles of my heart have multiplied;
free me from my anguish
Look upon my affliction and my distress
and take away all my sins

Guard my life and rescue me
Le me not be put to shame
For I take refuge in you
May integrity and uprightness protect me
Because my hope is in you!!
