Restore me the joy of your salvation

10 Create in me a pure heart, O God,
    and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
11 Do not cast me from your presence
    or take your Holy Spirit from me.
12 Restore to me the joy of your salvation
    and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.


Restore me the joy of your salvation

It's not my salvation, it's God's

Yes life can hit us, and sometimes hit us hard.
Disaster, tragedy, people come and go, death and birth

david's prayer:
- pure heart, motivation, whatever happens
- steadfast, unwavering, stable, tak tergoyahkan.. he knows issue/problem will hit
- joy - not happiness, it's God's not earthly
- your salvation - reason of joy, not our own salvation, but His. only by accepting Jesus and following Him.

Questions:
how's your relationship with God?
what motivates you to serve?
