Grace for your spirit. July 5, 2012

Grace for your spirit
But I am a worm and not a man. A reproach of men, and despised by the people. Psalm 22:6

David had a lot of problems and sin in his life. How did he always find his way back to God ? He had the ability to completely humble himself before God, and allow the greatness of God to heal him. He certainly was not a worm, but his image of himself couldn't be much lower. When we have a high opinion of ourselves, it pushes us away from God and His forgiveness. We used to sing a song with this line, "Would He devote that sacred head for such a worm as I ?" People so objected to that phrase that it was changed to , "Such a one as I.". We all have problems and sin that separate us from God. What will be our best move?, To boldly march before Him, or squiggle in like a worm. The worm works better
