Psalm 26:1-7 “By David. Judge me, LORD, for I have walked in my integrity. I have trusted also in the LORD without wavering. Examine me, LORD, and prove me. Try my heart and my mind. For your loving kindness is before my eyes. I have walked in your truth. I have not sat with deceitful men, neither will I go in with hypocrites. I hate the assembly of evildoers, and will not sit with the wicked. I will wash my hands in innocence, so I will go about your altar, LORD, that I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard and tell of all your wondrous deeds.”

In one sense, we are perfect in God’s sight because of Jesus Christ. We are positionally secure because Jesus Christ’s death on the cross saves us from the eternal penalty of our sins. But, day to day, we aren’t perfect. We are called to be holy, and to live holy, but it’s not easy! David’s words here should encourage us to try to live in such a way that we can ask God to examine us, and prove us, and to find us faithful in our day to day living.
