Scripture:  Psalm 32:1-11  (NIV)

Blessed is he 
whose transgressions are forgiven, 
whose sins are covered. 

Blessed is the man 
whose sin the LORD does not count against him 
and in whose spirit is no deceit. 

When I kept silent, 
my bones wasted away 
through my groaning all day long. 

For day and night 
your hand was heavy upon me; 
my strength was sapped 
as in the heat of summer. 

Then I acknowledged my sin to you 
and did not cover up my iniquity. 
I said, "I will confess 
my transgressions to the LORD "—
and you forgave 
the guilt of my sin. 

Therefore let everyone who is godly pray to you 
while you may be found; 
surely when the mighty waters rise, 
they will not reach him. 

You are my hiding place; 
you will protect me from trouble 
and surround me with songs of deliverance. 

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; 
I will counsel you and watch over you. 

Do not be like the horse or the mule, 
which have no understanding 
but must be controlled by bit and bridle 
or they will not come to you. 

Many are the woes of the wicked, 
but the LORD's unfailing love 
surrounds the man who trusts in him. 

Rejoice in the LORD and be glad, you righteous; 
sing, all you who are upright in heart!

comment:  several items come to mind, for this selection.  first, it is important for all anonymous seekers of faith to understand our conception of what sin really means; ole dummy s'plains god's view.

next, working with others is very draining work.  it literally saps our strength.  we need private time, to let god rejuvenate us, especially when LOVE had to save the day, through intense work with others; chapter seven.  of course, this applies to those that make it to the twelfth step; in order.  it does not apply to two-steppers.

Prayer:  heavenly father, we thank you for letting us understand your prophecies, in isaiah, that relate to your desire for us, for our healing.
