Psalm 51 teaches us no matter where we are coming from to come to God as we are -- whether that is messy, confused, lost, or anything else -- but we are to come as we are with our hearts in whatever shape they are in and offer them. We look at this text thinking about prayer in the form of intentional listening. The word intentional is defined as deliberate, calculated, conscious, intended, planned, meant, on purpose. Therefore, we are to purposefully come to God to listen -- in any and all conditions of heart.
