“Because of God's immense love for us we can throw ourselves on him in our pain, whatever its source, even in the self-inflicted pain of sin. We can cry, we can yell, we can beg like a child who screams "Mo...m!" at the first sign of trouble, who assumes she can and will help. God can and will help, and he wants to.” PrayerGod S LovePrayers Of The HeartGod S Love For UsHelp In Trouble Book:Create in Me a Clean Heart: Ten Minutes a Day in the Penitential Psalms Source: Create in Me a Clean Heart: Ten Minutes a Day in the Penitential Psalms
“There's a reason Psalm 51 is the best known of the Penitential Psalms and one of the best-loved psalms of all. It speaks to the deep pain we feel inside us when we sin, and then it shows us the mercy of God. His is the love of a Father who sees his child's stricken face — washes the tears away — and then reaches inside to create in us "a clean heart;" to breathe "a new and right spirit" within us.” PrayerMercyCreatePsalmsMercy Of GodClean HeartPenitential PsalmsPsalm 51 Book:Create in Me a Clean Heart: Ten Minutes a Day in the Penitential Psalms Source: Create in Me a Clean Heart: Ten Minutes a Day in the Penitential Psalms
