Description
King David was a deeply flawed man, yet he became one of the greatest leaders in history. His story reminds us that we are all imperfect and subject to tragic failure, but God can still use us when we humbly and sincerely seek forgiveness. Though forgiven, David paid for his sins dearly–particularly in the life of his family. But he never resigned himself to a life of despair as did his predecessor, King Saul, who ended his life by committing suicide. The challenges David faced are the same we face as men today. But by learning from David, we can avoid his pitfalls. And when we fail, we can learn from God’s grace in David’s life.
