Psalm 130


The other night I spent some time looking back through pictures and posts from when Simeon and Lieren were newborn babies.  I was especially struck by their tiny-ness in this post, was reminded of the sweet moments, and got to reflect on the evidences of God's grace in that season.


As I read and looked at the pictures, I kept coming back to a passage of scripture that really sums up  those days for me.  I'm going to be teaching from it during our fall Bible study so have been soaking in it recently...

If you, O Lord, kept a record of sins,
O Lord, who could stand?
But with You there is forgiveness;
therefore You are feared.

I wait for the Lord, my soul waits,
and in His word I put my hope.
My soul waits for the Lord
more than watchman wait for the morning,
more than watchman wait for the morning.

O Israel, put your hope in the Lord,
for with the Lord is unfailing love
and with Him is full redemption.
