PSALM 51

If someone knows about falling into the pit of sin, it would be King David... adultery, lies, murder, abuse of power and betrayal... all in short span of time. But when confronted by a friend, he collapsed into a heap of repentance and confession. Psalm 51 is his confessional prayer. David then turned to God's faithfulness and mercy and knew God was more than able to forgive him, not because of who David was, but because of who God is.

Sinner David claimed God's willingness to remove his guilt and shame... in fact his prayer sought God's action to cleanse and wash him to be whiter than snow.

Here is Yellowstone's Grand Canyon in June... the snow still covers part of the canyon.
