A Parent After God's Own Heart
August 14, 2022 • George May • Zephaniah 3:17, Deuteronomy 6:5–7, Proverbs 15:31–32, Proverbs 4:23
Reflect on Zephaniah 3:17, contemplating God's love for you, your children, and others. Ask Him to fill you with His love so that it overflows onto your children and others. Which of these demands of the heart can you relate with the most? Are you willing to confess and seek forgiveness and growth?
Have Mercy on Me, O God
August 7, 2022 • Beau Eckert • 2 Samuel 12, Psalm 51, Psalm 32
After David’s sin against Bathsheba and Uriah, God sends Nathan to confront him. Nathan uses a parable to help David see the devastation his sin has caused. David’s heartfelt confession is preserved for us in Psalm 51. It reminds us how much we all need the Lord’s mercy and forgiveness.
