Today’s quote and prayer from
“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer”
Today’s Reading: Psalm 141:5
LORD God,
please correct me when I err.
When others point out my faults,
help me to receive that correction
with grace and not anger.
Lord Jesus,
you alone are faultless.
Forgive me.
Amen.
— — — —
Even if I caused you sorrow by my letter,
I do not regret it.
Though I did regret it—
I see that my letter hurt you,
but only for a little while—
yet now I am happy,
not because you were made sorry,
but because your sorrow led you to repentance.
For you became sorrowful as God intended
and so were not harmed in any way by us.
Godly sorrow brings repentance
that leads to salvation and leaves no regret,
but worldly sorrow brings death.
See what this godly sorrow has produced in you:
what earnestness,
what eagerness to clear yourselves,
what indignation, what alarm,
what longing, what concern,
what readiness to see justice done.
At every point you have proved yourselves
to be innocent in this matter.
(2 Corinthians 7:8-11 NIV)*
