Thanks David...This a very thought provoking lesson. Thanks David. Is not King David and how he responded to Absalom an example of how God responds to us when we do not repent of our sins and turn from evil ways? God is always there as King David was. From reading the word about Absalom, it seems that he had an unrepentant heart. In the example of the prodigal son, he returned to his father,begged for forgiveness and turned from his sins. I guess these stories have a different meaning to me because we have dealt with a prodigal for many years. He has repented many times but some how his actions do not look like repentance. He continues to return to the world and the sin of the world. I know that a lot of people think we have not done the right things with him to try to turn him from the sins and to repentance. In saying all of this, I am saying there is always a lot more to the story than meets the eye. <br />I believe these two stories are the complete contrast of one another as an example of the nature of man. Some will come to repentance and some will not. Thanks for the thoughts.sheliaszambiajournalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03873545940220870837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9130464087059220567.post-7358128708321662752011-05-31T20:02:25.153-05:002011-05-31T20:02:25.153-05:00Wow, powerful lesson David.
