Psalm 6

O Lord, do not rebuke me in your anger,
or discipline me in your wrath.
Be gracious to me, O Lord, for I am languishing;
O Lord, heal me, for my bones are shaking with terror.
My soul also is struck with terror,
while you, O Lord — how long?
Turn, O Lord, save my life;
deliver me for the sake of your steadfast love.

The psalmist asks, "save my life."

The original Hebrew is much closer to: equip my mind and character.

That Which Exists, if given attention, will do both; often achieving the first translation through the second.

This says nothing about redeem, which is an entirely different verb and process.

I cannot earn my redemption, on that I depend on the promise and example of Jesus.

But we can each contribute to the quality of our days by giving full attention to that which exists as an expression of That Which Exists.

Dear God, equip my mind and character.
