Genesis 20:1-21:34; Job 23:1-24:25; Matthew 11:2-30

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise. Psalm 51:17

This psalm tells us how to know the God of heaven more intimately. Sin comes between man and God, but when we openly confess what we have done, God will freely forgive and give us a fresh new start. We need not feel  embarrassed at our weakness— that is pride. God already knows our sin, but we have to admit it and follow Him once more. —G. Frear

Have mercy on me O God my King,
As to You now, my sin I bring;
Wash me thoroughly, make me clean,
Against You alone, my sin has been.  —G. F.
