To: Jerry_M, RnMomof7 out of a broken heart - Psalm 34:18
Only when there is a total focus on the work of God in salvation (driving men to their knees in repentance) is there true holiness.

Major Bump

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and a contrite heart, O God, Thou wilt not despise.
There is a wonderful power to those who are on their knees. If we don't think we have need to repent of sin, then we should pray that He will reveal our wicked ways and prepare to be brought low. Out of this will He build a thirsty soul:
I stretch forth my hands unto Thee; my soul thirsteth after Thee, as a thirsty land. Selah Hear me speedily, O LORD; my spirit faileth. Hide not Thy face from me, lest I be like them that go down into the pit. Cause me to hear Thy lovingkindness in the morning, for in Thee do I trust. Cause me to know the way wherein I should walk, for I lift up my soul unto Thee.
