Even While Disiplining God Still Cares For His Own

Today's Verse is II Samuel 18:8
For the battle was there scattered over the face of all the country: and the wood devoured more people that day than the sword devoured. 

David's Servants here are fighting Absalom and those following him, and Absalom's rebellion here was the result of David's sin with Bathsheba. However, David is still beloved of God, and still on God's side. Therefore, as we see here, even though David is suffering the consequences of sin, God is still fighting for him. Let us therefore take heart, for even if we are being disciplined by God, he shall still have our backs, he shall still care for us as his children as we see he did here for David.

To God be the Glory
Scott
