"Forgive Me Again" Psalm 29-30; Acts 23:1-15

My years are consumed with groaning. I am forgotten as though I was dead. Even in this... But, I trust in You, Lord. Psalm 29:15 David. Oh! Another overt sin. Again. Curved in. Repent. Oh! Sorrow! So swift. David listens well. "Let us fall into the Hand of the Lord, for his mercy is great; but let me not fall into the hand of man.” For when we sin, God's anger is but for a moment. His favor is for a lifetime.  Ps 30:5 Weeping tarries the night. Joy comes in the morning. Ps 30:5 Troubles come into all of our lives. Some seem to last a lifetime; Some are gone with a sigh. Whatever we face, "we were made for another world." CS Lewis It's why time seems so strange to us. A wink. A blink. We shrink. No We were not made for time. No we were made for Eternity. PHOTO: Joy breaks at the Quarries Lake. I pass this spot every day of my life. And I lingered here this morning to watch the joy rise.
