Hope for Sexual Strugglers

David fell in 2 Samuel 11. He saw that Bathsheba was “very beautiful,” and he followed his lusts down the slope to adultery—and then even to having her husband killed.

But by 1 Kings 1, David is able to be attended to by Abishag the Shunammite, who the text also says was “very beautiful,” and yet “the king knew her not” (verse 4).

Maybe aging was a factor, but my guess is that there’s much more going on here than merely getting old. Such a change sure seems like God’s purifying hand in some regard—if not mostly. It’s a real-life example of victory.

There’s no need to be captive for the rest of your life, if God would so move. Be hopeful and lean on him for help.

To redeem or not to redeem...

The Blog?
What do you vote?
I have been thinking about it for quite a while now...but am stil undecided.

Farewell blogging world...

Well, it has been fun, but I think I have come to the conclusion that I am going to retire my blog. I definitely have to say that I have learned a lot from so many of you, and have been encouraged many times through your words. But my decision to leave is one of personal conviction, and I can honestly say that I didnt always blog for the right reasons. If you would like to know more details than I would be happy to explain, but if not, then I hope the best for all of you in your pursuit of Christ and I will see you around.
The End
