Sin is a pervasive enemy. It touches every part of our lives, both personal and communal. Psalm 103 beautifully shows us God’s amazing redemption. In this poem, the Psalmist talks to his own soul, reminding his inner life of what it knows to be true. God moves it from deficit to neutral, and from neutral to blessed. He does not treat us as we deserve, but blesses us and makes us live.
