Psalm 116:1-4
I love the LORD, because he has heard my voice and my pleas for mercy. (2) Because he inclined his ear to me, therefore I will call on him as long as I live. (3) The snares of death encompassed me; the pangs of Sheol laid hold on me; I suffered distress and anguish. (4) Then I called on the name of the LORD: “O LORD, I pray, deliver my soul!”
This is that humility again, if I humble myself before You, You will lift me up. It is my act of humbling myself, my acknowledgment of my total inability to make myself right in Your eyes, my confession that I have sinned against You. Salvation is of the Lord.
