I, like Israel:
- Did not keep the covenant (Because He saved me, He is my Lord.)
- Refused to walk in His law (I know to do good, and don't.)
- Forgot His works (I accuse Him, and slip into doubt.)
- Rebelled against Him in the wilderness (Doubt and hard times bring rebellion rather than communion.)
- Tested God (I challenged His authority.)
- Did not trust His salvation (I did not believe His promises.)
- Flattered Him with my tongue (I said all the "right" things.)
- Lied to Him with my mouth (But I didn't believe them in my heart.)
- My heart was not steadfast (My faith wavered.)
- Grieved Him (My refusal to obey and the trouble I brought on myself grieved His heart.)
- Limited Him (I didn't even ask, sure He couldn't or wouldn't.)
- Forgot His power (How many times has He been there for me, but I chose to wallow.)
- Turned to idols (I looked elsewhere for comfort and strength.)
But He, being full of compassion, forgave [my] iniquity, and did not destroy [me].
Yes, many a time He turned His anger away,/ And did not stir up all His wrath;
For He remembered that [I am] but flesh,/ A breath that passes away and does not come again. (v.38-39)
