Dayton: A Study In Psalms--Psalm 5 and 6

No person who seeks true justice can do so for long without recognizing the necessity of regular, close looks in the mirror. It has been said that the sins we hate most strongly in others are often ones with which we ourselves struggle. If one is not careful, our zeal to see wrongs righted can cause blind spots in our own lives.

David knew this intimately. While literally on the run for his life from his enemies, he did not hesitate to call out the sins and wrongdoings of those evildoers, asking God to vindicate him, and to judge the wicked; and yet on multiple occasions, most famously in the adultery against and M**der of one of his own friends, David had to reckon with the fact that he, himself, was the one who did evil, sinning against God and man.

The only hope for David and the only hope for every human is the perfect justice, mercy, and grace that are found in the Lord, the One, as David later would write, "Who forgives your sins, Who heals your diseases, Who redeems your life from the pit..." ~Psalm 103.

We will continue our study in Psalms, looking at chapters 5 and 6, 6:30 pm, April 16, 2026 at Panera Bread, The Greene. We would love to have you join us!
