Surrounded By Mercy

August 28, 2013

It was almost impossible not to see the giant billboard with the red background and huge white letters that shouted: “This year thousands of men will die from stubbornness.” Later I learned that the billboard was one of hundreds just like it targeted at middle-aged men who typically avoid routine medical screenings and often die from preventable conditions.

Psalm 32 deals with the spiritual disease of sin, which can be treated by honest acknowledgment and repentance. The first five verses express the anguish of hiding our guilt and then celebrate the joyful release of confessing our transgressions to God and being forgiven.

This psalm goes on to show that the Lord longs for us to seek His help in difficulty (vv.6-8) and receive His guidance. “I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye” (v.8). We are hindered, though, when we stubbornly refuse to follow His direction and repent from our sin.

God’s Word urges us, “Do not be like the horse or like the mule, . . . which must be harnessed with bit and bridle, else they will not come near you” (v.9). Rather than hold on to our sin, the Lord offers an alternative: When we humbly confess, His mercy shall surround us (v.10).

Heavenly Father, help us now
At Thy feet to humbly bow;
Take away all thought of sin,
Make us clean and pure within. —Bartels
The first step to receiving God’s forgiveness is to admit that we need it.

Read: Psalm 32

He who trusts in the Lord, mercy shall surround him. —Psalm 32:10
Bible in a Year:
Psalms 120-122; 1 Corinthians 9

You Are Perceptive
You are highly intuitive and sensitive. You often pick up on feelings others won't admit to having.
You always feel before you think. Your emotions feel like they come out of no where and often predict the thoughts you're about to have.

The light side of you connects to the world on a deeper level. You find a lot of meaning and purpose in life.
You are highly creative and expressive. You pick up on both themes and undertones that others don't even notice.

The dark side of you has bad moods that come about unexpectedly. You can feel quite down at times.
You experience a broad range of emotions and states - with that comes some of the more negative emotions that others aren't willing to face.

You Are Skeptical
You're the type of person who questions the world around you. You don't take anything as given.
You are a big believer in doing what's right. You may be a nonconformist, but you take ethics seriously.

The light side of you is faithful, committed, and compassionate. You are a great friend, family member, and partner.
You stand up for what you believe is right, no matter how popular or unpopular your opinion happens to be.

The dark side of you is a bit anxious and neurotic. It's hard for you to let go of the day's worries and concerns.
You also sometimes tend to push yourself too hard, leading to exhaustion. Remember, you don't have to do it all!

You Are a Perfectionist
You are an organized and orderly person. You do best when you can systemize and take your time.
You hate making mistakes, and you can avoid them if you're able to do things your way. You are good at double checking yourself.
Photobucket
The light side of you is proud and accomplished. You have worked hard for your success and feel like you deserve it.
You have high standards for yourself, and you make the world a better place simply by participating.

The dark side of you is easily disappointed by yourself and others. You dislike people not living up to expectations.
At times, you can often feel burdened by how much you've taken on. You could use a bit more time for fun.
