October 5: Psalm 53

Psalm 53

"There is no one who does good, not even one" (v3). Considering the world as it has been since Cain and Abel, it is amazing that God loves us. "God has looked down from heaven upon the sons of men to see if there is anyone who understands, who seeks after God ..." (v2). But instead of waiting to find that perfect person, God came to find us. "The salvation of Israel" has come (v6) and is available to the whole world.

The only requirement is that we recognize our need for this God who seeks and saves the lost.
