KEEPER of MY SOUL

“‘It is You who has kept my soul from the pit of nothingness, For You have cast all my sins behind Your back.’”  

 Isaiah 38:17

There are some descriptions of God that “wow” us. This is one of them. “Nothingness.” I don’t know anyone who wants “nothingness” to describe them or their lives. Within us is a yearning to be significant. But without God, we circle in a pit of nothingness carrying the burden of our sins on our back. Then, one day, we look UP. We respond to the outstretched hand of Jesus. He takes our sins on His back, where He was scourged for our transgressions. We recognize that in His death, we were made clean. “Nothingness” no longer describes us. We are children of the King and destined for His throne room!  

Lord, KEEPER OF MY SOUL, I praise You for casting all my sins behind Your back and for keeping me from the pit of nothingness!
