“If you think that’s the best plan, I’ll do it,” the king answered.
And as he went, he cried, “O my son Absalom! My son, my son Absalom! If only I had died instead of you! O Absalom, my son, my son.”
David was always willing to change his mind if his advisers gave him a plan he thought was better.
Even thou Absalom stole David’s rule and was after his father David to kill him, David mourned Absalom’s death bitterly.
Lord God,
Give me a heart that is willing to take advice and discern the best path for my life. May I be loyal even when it doesn’t make sense today. May your will and understanding overwhelm my own desires.
In Jesus name,
Amen
