Psalms 31:10

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Psalms 31:10. For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing:

Better spend them in sighing than in sinning; yet it is a sad case when we seem to measure our days by the bars of our grief.

Psalms 31:10. My strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are consumed.

Now he sees to the bottom of his sorrow: "My strength faileth because of mine iniquity." We can bear those sorrows which have no connection with our sins, but, alas! where are they to be found? It may be that David’s great sin seemed to him to lie at the very root of all his grief.
