b"Calvin Houser (FBC Missionary, Philippines) - Psalm 51 (Psalm 51:1-13, 15 & 17)\\n\\xa0\\nAs we kick off a New Year, everyone is looking forward to new things. It could be a new goal, opportunity, or even a new and better version of themselves. But what we learn from the life of David is that before we try to become something new, we may need to get back to where we have been with God.\\nTrue spiritual renewal doesn't start with changing my situation or the people around me. It starts with renewing and restoring a right relationship with God. God is not just looking for a new me. God wants to Renew Me.\\n\\n\\xa0\\n\\nRENEW ME!\\nI.
