April 10, Morning
I am black, but comely.
[Song.1:5]
Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. ■ Thy renown went forth among the heathen for thy beauty: for it was perfect through my comeliness, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord God.
[Psa.51:5 | Ezek.16:14]
I am a sinful man, O Lord. ■ Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair.
[Luke.5:8 | Song.4:1]
I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes. ■ Thou art all fair, my love; there is no spot in thee.
[Job.42:6 | Song.4:7]
When I would do good, evil is present with me. ■ Be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee.
[Rom.7:21 | Matt.9:2]
I know that in me [that is, in my flesh] dwelleth no good thing ■ Ye are complete in him. ■ Perfect in Christ Jesus.
[Rom.7:18 | Col.2:10 | Col.1:28]
Ye are washed, ... ye are sanctified, ... ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. ■ That ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light.
[I Cor.6:11 | I Pet.2:9]
