Psalm 51:12 (LSB) 12 Restore to me the joy of Your salvation And sustain me with a willing spirit.<\/p>\n

Th entire 51st Psalm is a prayer of David after being confronted by the prophet, Nathan.<\/p>\n

Nathan had reprimanded David for his affair with Bathsheba and the subsequent murder of her husband, Uriah.<\/p>\n

This prayer in its entirety is an incredible expose` on the topic of sin, repentance, God\u2019s mercy, and the forgiveness of God.<\/p>\n

As David was confronted with the enormity and the moral gravity of his sins, he immediately repented before God and cried out for His mercy.<\/p>\n

He knew his sins were great. But he also understood that God\u2019s mercy was bigger.<\/p>\n

His statement above is interesting.<\/p>\n

He asked God to restore the joy of His salvation.<\/p>\n

His heart had failed in making the decision to commit adultery with Bathsheba. But it had failed exponentially more with his decision to try to cover up that sin with the the murder of her husband.<\/p>\n

One wrong choice was leading to many other wrong choices. And they were beginning to pile up.<\/p>\n

The weight of his guilt was crushing him. And now he was asking God to restore his joy; the joy that comes with God\u2019s mercy and redemption.<\/p>\n

This is what sets David apart from so many others. He sincerely wanted to do right. He wanted to please God and serve Him wholly.<\/p>\n

So, when he dropped the ball and did something wrong, he did not run from it or try to pass the blame onto someone else.<\/p>\n

He stood up like a mature man of God and did what was required to make things right, even knowing that the repercussions might be painful and hard to bear.<\/p>\n

May we all do likewise, willingly admitting our failures, and laying them before God in repentance, seeking His mercy and correction.<\/p>\n

And then walking out what He shows us to do, that we would not be separated from Him by our sins.<\/p>\n
