Restore to me the Joy of my Salvation


Psalm 51:12 (NIV)

"Restore to me the joy of your salvation
and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me."


Reflection:

There are times that we get discouraged and disappointed. When a lot of problems start to pile up. When pressures from our work even from the ministry start to push us to the limits, we sometimes break down. I believe Christian life is the most joyful life anyone can have but in reality due to the fact that we are still in this fallen world, we can get disheartened at times. When we sin, we even feel guilty and feel so far off from God (this is even though God accepts us no matter what we've done or who we are).

These feelings are true and we need to accept it and face it. Because these feelings, if left unnoticed can overcome us and leave us helpless and tired to continue running the race. Let us pray with David for God to restore the joy of our Salvation.

This free gift we received is the greatest gift one can ever have. God our source of joy can easily pick us up and comfort us in times of our troubles and feel us with joy. Indeed, the joy of the Lord is our strength in every and any circumstance. Let's run to him the moment we experience any of this feeling.

God Bless you so much today!
