Off Track
Why have you despised the commandment of the Lord, to do evil in His sight? —2 Samuel 12:9

When I sat in my car at the start of the automatic car wash, I didn’t know that my left front tire was not properly lined up with the track. The car wash started but my car wasn’t moving, so I accelerated. That caused my tire to jump the track.

Now I was stuck—I couldn’t move forward or backward. The car wash continued through its cycle without my car. Meanwhile, cars began lining up and waiting for me. I was glad when two workers at the station helped me get my car back on the track.

Sometimes in our Christian lives we get off track too. King David did in a big way. He committed adultery with Bathsheba and later ordered that her husband be put “in the forefront of the hottest battle” and left there to be killed (2 Sam. 11:3-4,15-17). David’s actions were way out of line with how God wanted him to behave as His chosen king.

David needed help to get back on track. The Bible says that “the Lord sent Nathan to David” (12:1). He confronted him about stealing another man’s wife, and David wisely repented (v.13). Nathan took a risk to help David get right with God, even though his sin still had dire consequences.

Does someone you know need your help to get back on track?

Fellowship with other Christians
Strengthens us when we are weak,
Reprimands when we are sinning,
Helps us when God’s will we seek. —Sper

True love dares to confront.


Bible in One Year: Daniel 10–12; Proverbs 19:1-15

Yes, we got some lake effect from Lake Ontario. Doesn’t happen that often, the wind has to be the right way. It is really light and fluffy and you could blow it away with a leaf blower.

Down in ski country there is 2 feet already and they open this weekend. So much for global warming eh?

He has an amazing voice and we watched a couple clips. I love the reaction from the woman on the panel, she tears up quickly and is truly touched, about our reaction.

Thank you for the Daily Bread today, Mr. Mayor. Its 24 here also and the ground was white this morning but not 6 inches. I took a couple of pictures as it was pretty but the cold is pretty awful! Was 14 a couple of days ago though.
