Show Us, O God!

Let thy work appear unto thy servants, and thy glory unto their children.

Psalm 90:16

Reading:

Psalm 90

Is it troubling to me that my secret sins are exposed to the light of God’s face?

How (and how often) do I number my days…and for what purpose?

“O satisfy us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days” (Psalm 90:14).

What place does God’s mercy have in my personal satisfaction?

Why might God want His beauty upon me?

[The Scriptures say in Psalm 90:17 -- Let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us]
from Psalm 90:17

“Dear God,”

Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance.

Psalm 32:7

Reading:

Psalm 32

“Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered” (Psalm 32:1).

Am I more disposed to repent or to excuse myself?

Does my definition of repentance match God’s?

Which (if any) sin am I still trying to hide from God?

What do I know about hiding in God?

Must I have a bridle or can God guide me with His eye?

That mercy compassing me about — do others get some from me?

What’s my song today?

[The Scriptures say in Psalm 32:10 -- He that trusteth in the LORD, mercy shall compass him about]
from Psalm 32:10
