[:en]David pleaded to God not to rebuke him in His anger nor discipline him in His wrath. He knew that if God treated him with justice alone and not with mercy, he would be wiped out due to God’ wrath. He asked for mercy, healing and deliverance.
David was honest with God about his guilt. He poured out his heart with weeping and tears. God heard his cry and accepted his prayer. He was able to obtain mercy and forgiveness.
Let us be honest with God by confessing our sins. Let God’s forgiveness free us from the guilt of sin.[:]
