Life is often more messy then we like to admit. We have lapses in our faith to Christ and when life's messy parts begin to overwhelm us we are tempted to make bad decisions. We often try to work out our messy lives in our own strength, in our own power, and try to control things that are out of our control. In 1 Samuel 25 we learn a simple but difficult truth and it is what David was challenged with, that is, trust in the Lord who is in control because His grace is at work in you. It is an unshakable trust in the Lord's providence and resting in the Lord's grace that guides us through life's most uncertain times.
