Read the Bible in a Year 
This morning read Psalms 31 and 32 


Committing Your Spirit to God 


David said, 

5	Into Your hand I commit my spirit; 
	You have redeemed me, O LORD God of truth. 
	(Psa. 31:5). 

Jesus quoted this truth on the cross, because it summarized His life. Both David and Jesus committed their lives to the God of truth, believing that He would always deal with them in truth. Therefore, regardless of what their enemies did, they committed everything to God. When the moment of death arrived, it was natural for each to commit his spirit to God, knowing that He would carry them through death. Later in verse 15, David spoke another similar truth, "My times are in Your hand." 

Friends, do you so live that you can repeat these quotes of David?
