David could never have imagined himself capable of adultery and murder, not in his wildest imaginings. Then he seduced Bathsheba and arranged for her husband’s death, setting in motion a series of tragic events that would haunt him the rest of his life. So how could David—a man after God’s own heart—do such a thing? Maybe a more important question is “How can we make sure we don’t fall prey to something similar?”
“Don’t be so naive and self-confident. You’re not exempt. You could fall flat on your face as easily as anyone else.”
— 1 Corinthians 10:12 (MSG)
Lord Jesus, guard our hearts lest we succumb to temptation and do something we will regret the rest of our lives. In Your holy name we pray. Amen.
