🌿 Psalm 51:17 — The Heart God Will Never Reject

“The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.” — Psalm 51:17 (KJV)
This verse is a profound declaration of what truly pleases God—not rituals, not offerings, but the posture of the heart. Written by King David after his fall into sin with Bathsheba, Psalm 51 is a raw and honest cry for mercy. Verse 17 stands as the emotional and spiritual climax of his repentance
🔍 What Does “Broken Spirit” Mean?
It’s not about despair or hopelessness.
A broken spirit is one that recognizes its need for God.
It reflects humility, surrender, and the willingness to be reshaped by divine grace.
Â
💔 What Is a “Contrite Heart”?
Contrition is deep remorse—not just guilt, but a longing to be restored.
It’s the kind of sorrow that leads to transformation, not self-pity.
God values this heart posture more than any outward religious act.
