Sometimes, in our parenting, we need to tell our kids “No” because there is a bigger and better plan for their future. Last week, we saw that David’s good intention of building a house for God wasn’t what God had in mind. Still, in His graciousness, God showed David His plans for David’s entire lineage. This week we dig deeper into what God has done and what God is going to do for David. But His goodness stretches beyond David and into our own lives. When was the last time you really pondered the goodness and grace of God in your life? Prior to worship on Sunday, I would encourage you to read Ephesians 2. Then, sit down in prayer and praise. In doing so, you might get a taste of what David experienced in 2 Samuel 7:18-29. I pray you will join us this weekend as we worship the God who has overwhelmed us in the grace demonstrated through the giving of His Son Jesus.
