day no. 14,594: exhausted, but hopeful

Psalm 130
If God should count our sins against us, who could avoid accountability? But as powerful as the rule of sin is over us, God possesses power beyond it. So much so that He can forgive sins. He can break the rule of sin. He can overrule the weight of our wages. If the thought of facing a holy God in our sins should produce fear, how much more fear is owed to the God who can disarm sin? As devastating as our sin is, He is the devastator of my sins. He stands above them. Love is as strong as death and I wait for Him like the watchman waits for morning: exhausted, but hopeful, exasperated at times, but sure of the sun's appearing ending all my earthly woes.
