The pride that denied that we were sinning when we were sinning needed the Spirits mighty work to thrust it aside so that we may confess the truth that we had sinned. I think it is the same fleshly pride that ( with allitle help from our enemy) that would rather try to "Get right" with God ,than submit to the Truth that depite our ongoing failure, God's grace through the gospel aplied ,must wash down into the places where the spade of conviction has drawn blood. We say "I am injured wihtout relief and that is all I deserve " .But God "BREAKS and BINDS UP". Psalm 103 remembers "all God's benifits of mercy, Fatherhood and forgiveness" Thank you for the reminder that we can be as sure about the cure as we are about the illness.

We say “I am injured wihtout relief and that is all I deserve ” .But God “BREAKS and BINDS UP”.
Psalm 103 remembers “all God’s benifits of mercy, Fatherhood and forgiveness”

Thank you for the reminder that we can be as sure about the cure as we are about the illness.
