Dear Darren
Vs.17 "O God,Thou wilt not despise." . In my thinking I'd say it means " I pray You'll accept my sacrifice of a contrite and broken heart and not look down on it with disdain." In short, I pray You'll accept my entreaty.
I hope that helps.
God bless you my brother and help you in your walk in Christ.
Love in Christ Jesus.

No but I'm pressing towards the mark of the prize of the high calling in christ Jesus........... :)
I have so much to die to in this life!
Hope I quoted it correctly!
Also.........
I have to agree with Craig and Patrick on this one, I'd be more concerned about my fellowship with those who already believe they are of the elect!! Been there done that!!! and I don't want to go back!!!!

Many are called but few are chosen, chosen for what? I guess the privalige to be in the first ressurection at the millenial reign of Christ, to be the Christ's of Christ. That will be awesome, but it matters not what I think I am, labels are for people who need to see fruit rather than feel the effect of one's fruit. As Paul said it's better we call ourselves chief amongst sinners and least amongst the kingdom of God. I may have a greater light now than the one I previously had, but I can't say for certain, I've only got the measure of faith God has given me to go on.
I'll only know when I'm face to face with Jesus, other than that I'll be a long time dead.
