Psalm 51:17 My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart you, God, will not despise.

God is no longer looking for us to sacrifice animals (or anything else) on an altar to appease Him for our sins!

Christ came to be the ultimate sacrifice so none of that was required any more – but we still have to admit to those sins.

When we openly and humbly admit to our sins before God, He is faithful and just to forgive us just as He promised!

Psalm 89:8 Who is like you, Lord God Almighty? You, Lord, are mighty, and your faithfulness surrounds you.

Can you tell the difference between someone who is telling the truth and someone who is telling lies?

I hazard to say it is easy to spot when someone tells a lie because many people do get away with lies in their lives!

God wants us to be honest and open, spreading the truth and allowing others to make their own minds up!

Psalm 111:6 He has shown his people the power of his works, giving them the lands of other nations.

When we look back on the history of the people of Israel, we can see how God continued to look after them – even when they faltered in their belief or worship!

God chooses to love us for who we are. He continues to love us no matter what!

If we are willing to stay in contact with Him and listen to Him, we too will be able to see how much He can and will provide for us.

Pray for provision and compassion for the people of Ukraine!

Psalm 99:8 Lord our God, you answered them; you were to Israel a forgiving God, though you punished their misdeeds.

How many times have you thought God has not answered your prayers because something didn’t happen the way you wanted it to happen?

When God answers prayers, we may not like the answer because He is answering what we need and not what we desire.

But, no matter how much we think goes wrong, God is always ready and willing to forgive us, even when we have gone astray!
