A few words from jade

“Like Snow” was inspired by Psalm 51, one of my favorite passages—a prayer of humble repentance, asking the Lord to wash us once again. David’s prayer of repentance is one the church continually returns to. The phrase “Bend the knees of my heart” comes from an ancient prayer I read, and I was immediately captivated by the beautiful imagery. I’ve also been deeply influenced by Heidi Baker’s prayer, “Lower still.”

Lord, bend the knees of my heart and keep me low to the ground. “Wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.” The imagery of the Lord washing us, making us pure and white, is so powerful. Sin leaves a crimson stain, and only Christ’s righteousness can make us clean again. Praise God that He does this!

If you’ve never asked the Lord to wash you from the stain of sin, I pray that you would.
