Psalm 25:1-7
What we leave behind matters—and, if we’re honest, we know that our moral legacy will not sparkle in God’s sunlight, totally free of defects and failures. The psalmist celebrates the fact that, in this crucial respect, we serve a forgetful God, one whose grace blots out the shame and the failures from our life. What are the chapters of your life that, like the psalmist, you want God to forget?

- Have you ever talked to God about them, owning your failure and asking for forgiveness? If not (or if some of them still haunt you with guilt), make that a focus of your prayer today.
- As he asks God to forget the failures of the past, the psalmist also requests that God will show the right path, the ways of living that God desires. In what decisions do you need God’s guidance today? Are you open to doing what God wants you to do in those areas?
