God’s Not Done!
Many of us carry pain from the sins and failures of our past. Maybe our failings happened a week ago, a month ago, or decades ago, but we still carry regret around as if it happened yesterday. It's often harder for us to forgive ourselves than forgive someone else.
David, the King of Israel, initiated an adulterous affair with a woman named Bathsheba. She became pregnant while her husband, Uriah, was away from home serving in the army. After a failed attempt at bringing Uriah home to cover David's sin, David put Uriah out on the front line of battle where he was killed.
In the course of time, Bathsheba delivered David's baby, but the child was very sick. David repented, fasted, and prayed day and night for God to spare his son's life, but on the seventh day, David received the tragic news his child had died.
Upon receiving the news of his son's death, David did something seemingly odd. He immediately got up, washed himself, changed his clothes, then went to the Tabernacle and worshipped the Lord. Why did he do that? David understood nothing can change the past. We can mourn for a season, which is right, appropriate, and necessary. Yet, once we repent of our sins and ask God for forgiveness, we must learn to accept what cannot be changed and move forward in life. God isn't finished with us yet!
As you engage with God’s word:
● What is God saying to you?
● What does it mean to you?
● What action step do you need to take?
After you reflect on these questions, bring everything to God in prayer.
