Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
David prayed:
 
Psalm 51
 
1 Have mercy upon me, O God, according to THY lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of THY tender mercies blot out my transgressions.
 
2 Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin
 
David asked God to do this for him.  I find it much easier to ask God to cleanse me than to try to cleanse myself, so I've begun doing this and found myself to be changed by God!
 
7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
 
8 Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.
 
9 Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
 
When I have "rubbed against the world" I realize some of the thinking of the world may have clung to my thinking so I often pray the following verse 10, and sometimes after praying verse 10, I will even have the sensation of instantly being cleansed by God and there will be such peace.  Nothing hides from God!
 
10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
 
11 Cast me not away from Thy presence; and take not Thy holy spirit from me.
 
12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.
 
I feel I have greatly changed over the past few months since I have been asking God to cleanse my heart and to give me a "right" spirit about that person who has offended me!
