Passage: Psalm 25:6-10*

6. Remember, O LORD, your great mercy and love, for they are from of old.

7. Remember not the sins of my youth and my rebellious ways; according to your love remember me, for you are good, O LORD.

8. Good and upright is the LORD; therefore he instructs sinners in his ways.

9. He guides the humble in what is right and teaches them his way.

10. All the ways of the LORD are loving and faithful for those who keep the demands of his covenant.

Questions

1. Do you think God really needs to be reminded of His mercy and love (verse 6)?

 

2. Why would God consider forgetting the sins of your youth and your rebellious way (verse 7)?

 

3. What happens when you humble yourself before God (verse 9)?

It's not often you get a crack at a clean slate. What are you waiting for?
