詩篇51篇1-9節
神的小僕人
經文:
1 (大衛與拔示巴同室以後,先知拿單來見他;他作這詩,交與伶長。
2 求你將我的罪孽洗除淨盡,並潔除我的罪。
3 因為我知道我的過犯,我的罪常在我面前。
4 我向你犯罪,惟獨得罪了你,在你眼前行了這惡,以致你責備我的時
5 我是在罪孽裡生的,在我母親懷胎的時候,就有了罪。
6 你所喜愛的,是內裡誠實,你在我隱密處,必使我得智慧。
7 求你用牛膝草潔淨我,我就乾淨,求你洗滌我,我就比雪更白。
8 求你使我得聽歡喜快樂的聲音,使你所壓傷的骨頭,可以踴躍。
9 求你掩面不看我的罪,塗抹我一切的罪孽。
這是一首懺悔的詩篇,一個認罪的禱文。
我們都有一些揮不去的思維,忘不了的回憶,不能滿足的慾望,
禱告:
親愛的天父,悔罪是通往光明之路,不是叫我們活在內疚之中,
Psalm 51:1-9
Psalm 51 is a psalm of confession. David admitted his sinfulness in the womb of his mother. All through his life there were hidden and untold sins, and also sins of selfish ambition. We need the cleansing, the washing and the wiping away of our sinful debts.
We are all obsessed with some thoughts, some memory and some desires and they can conquer us. The only way to liberty is confession through which God’s forgiveness transform and deliver us. In the world of chaos and misery, we may not be able to change others but we can certainly change ourselves by committing ourselves to the Lord.
Confession is the way to the Light. It is not guilt we have to live with but with hopeful future that are in the hands of our Lord.
