From: "Bo Sullivan" <bosullivan@cableone.net> To: "president@whitehouse.gov".Net.GOV_MAIL Created: 4/23/2002 6:58 AM Subject: Psalm 37:39 Message: Psalm 37:39 But the salvation of the righteous is from the Lord; He is their strength in the time of trouble. I'm glad my salvation comes from the Lord and not myself! I'd be in trouble if I had to face my sins! Thank God that He is my strength in this time of trouble! Judgment is always a time of trouble, even for the righteous. See, even the righteousness of the righteous is as filthy rags in God's sight, because He is so holy. We strive to be like Him, but we're still tainted enough to be in constant need of His atoning blood covering our sins. This blood bath is how He saves us. He paid the price of death for our sins. Hence, this is how salvation is from the Lord. Not only this, but we don't even know how to do something as simple as pray for ourselves (Romans 8:26). It takes the Spirit helping us with our very first step into the kingdom of God and with all the steps thereafter. This is where a lot of us get into trouble, by thinking we will make steps in the kingdom on our own strength. Not so. He has to show us how and then help us do it every step of the way. I'm so glad He loves us like a true Father.
