Take 2-3 minutes to quiet yourself and ask God to speak to you today through your devotional time.

Reading: **Psalm 51**

Be sure to highlight or note anything that stands out to you while you read.
After reading the passage, take the next 5-10 minutes and spend time reflecting on what you read. You can write these things down in a journal or record them in your phone. Be attentive to both what you highlighted in the passage and what is going on in your life.
**
David's prayer of repentance teaches us that no failure is too great for God’s mercy. When we bring our brokenness before Him, He is faithful to restore. Like David, ask God to renew your heart and spirit so you can walk forward in grace.**

Now, take 10 minutes to seek God in prayer…

1. Begin your time in prayer by taking 1-3 minutes to sit in silence (You can take longer if you sense the Spirit already beginning to speak to you).
2. Pray through the things you sensed God speaking to you through the Scriptures or pray the following prayer: **Pray Psalm 51:10 aloud: “Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.”**
3. Close by taking 5 minutes to sit in silence, asking God if there is anything else He wants to speak to you today.

**Take Action:**

1. Set aside 10 minutes for honest confession and prayer.
2. Consider reaching out to a trusted friend or mentor for accountability and encouragement.
