Owning Sin, Psalm 51

April 22, 2022 • Josh Lindstrom • Psalm 51

David sinned grievously. He had committed adultery with a woman named Bathsheba and then had her husband murdered. The prophet, Nathan, confronted David and rather than try to cover it up, David owned his sin and sought God’s forgiveness. When life is difficult, our first step should be to turn to the Lord, confess any sins, and seek the joy of our salvation once more.
