“Now Absalom commanded his young men, “Watch Amnon until he is in a good mood from the wine. When I order you to strike Amnon, then kill him. Don’t be afraid. Am I not the one who has commanded you? Be strong and valiant! ”
2 Samuel 13:28 CSB
The amount of destruction that comes from following our own desires is shocking. Amnon and Absalom both seek their own ways and it devastates the people around them…the pain and consequences of their sin destroys lives, families and ultimately kingdoms.
Lord, help me to lay down every desire and follow You. Allow me to be at rest with whatever You are calling me to. Help me to trust that You are leading me into the best path.
