“God's peace is simply this: whatever may come, and whatever may happen, whatever you may lose, and whatever you may endure, it will be okay. It will be okay because he is with you and gives your faith promises to grab hold of.
May his peace be yours today, in each fragile moment. Let us live
in this promise.” Bruce Hillman on Psalm 127:2

A very interesting take on Psalm 51 by Steven Paulson.

How comforting to know that in Christ our sins are forgiven so completely that God responds, “What sin?” How marvelous is the mercy of the Lord!

Ps 51… [Is] the proclamation of the gospel of a new and better David, whose conception conceives within us new hope of a new life of forgiveness and reconciliation to the Father. This David, this Jesus, blots out our transgressions, washes us thoroughly from iniquities, and cleanses us from our sins. For from conception to cross, from full womb to empty tomb, he is the sole source and cause of our salvation. -Bird

“Jesus throws himself perfectly upon the mercy of God. Abandoning every glorious effort of his own, he completely repents for you, completely trusts for you, completely fulfills the penalty of death for you. Wholly God, his payment is acceptable to the divine judge. Wholly man, his death is properly substitutionary for this flesh and blood creation… And it is here he helps even you. His new life is yours.” Koch
