Psalm 34:18 "The Lord is close to those who are of a broken heart and saves such as are crushed with sorrow for sin and are humbly and thoroughly penitent."
After reading this verse I was reminded of the importance of daily repenting. More importantly, living a lifestyle of repentance. I'm sure there are multiple times during the day where my obedience is less than perfect. This verse says that God saves the broken and those humbled by their sin. I want my heart to be pricked when I break His heart. This romance is more than I can even currently imagine and His grace too incredible to squander. When I sin against Him it isn't a light thing or something to be treated as common occurrence. No, it's wounding my lover. Even though I daily turn my back on Him, He doesn't condemn me and doesn't forsake me.
