Do Not Take Your Holy Spirit From Me

23 May

As I read Ps 51, these verses were so appropriate for me to claim throughout the course of the day as I battled through many many challenging moments. The Lord kept reminding me that as I cry out to Him to create in me a clean heart, He will renew a steadfast spirit within me. I cried out to the Lord that He will not cast me away from His presence and not take His Holy Spirit from me. I need to depend fully and totally on Him, I need His empowerment, wisdom, comfort and grace. I asked the Lord to restore to me the joy of my salvation and to uphold me with His generous spirit. Then He will teach transgressors His ways ….

I will choose to praise the Lord, trust the Lord and believe that those who trust in Him will not be put to shame… the sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, a broken and contrite heart.
