FROM TODAYS DAILY REFLECTION: LORD, if you kept a record of our sins, who, O Lord, could ever survive? But you offer forgiveness, that we might learn to fear you. - Psalm 130:3-4 A PRAYER: Gracious God, like the psalmist, there have been many times when I cry out to you from the depths of despair, times when I beg you to hear my prayer and pay attention to me. Thank you for being there, for listening, for making yourself known to me. Yes, it’s true, Lord, that if you kept a record of my sins, I’d be without hope. But in fact you are gracious and merciful. You do forgive. Thus I hope in you. I trust you with my present and my future. To be sure, there is still more to be redeemed in my life. May your forgiveness and healing hands touch every part of me. May I live each moment out of reverence for you, offering myself to you as a living sacrifice. Thank you, dear Lord, for the season of Advent, for the opportunity to be reminded of just how much I need you. All praise be to you, Amen.
