Part 3

Hi, I’m glad you came back for part 3!

Let’s see now, where were we?  Oh yeah . . .

Well, we are at the end of old King Saul ya’ll.  It’s tragic and sad but it’s true.  At the 31^st chapter and verses 1 through 4 of I Samuel, Saul meets his end by suicide.  Yeah, it’s hard to read.  We’d hoped that somehow, Saul would get the message, repent and let go of causing our King David to live in such abject humiliation.  But nooooo, it’s almost surreal how he kept after him the way he did.  It’s also quit awesome how God continuously showed mercy by giving him several opportunities, to just repent and go home!  I wonder if any of us children of the Lord are in that position right now.  Where we with our knowingly retched, needing to say I’m sorry selves, seem to be getting break after break after break in life but still refuse to repent and change our ways. (I don’t like using the word sorry as it relates to us but I believe it fits to stress the point)

At II Samuel or 2^nd Samuel are chronicles of King David’s exploits as first a leader of Judah and lastly the leader of both Judah and Israel.  (You may notice here, that the order is a bit unique however, this is the Lord’s word and He can put it any in old order He wants.  He created us (Gen. 1:26-28), we did not create Him)

We’re almost at the end . . . log in tomorrow for my last and final blog on this Mad Grace!
