Day 38:: Affecting

I think what I realized the most is that our actions and our sins affect those around us, and we are affected likewise. The consequences of sin can be felt by everyone. If I walked a day in David's shoes, I would be filled with guilt and shame here...but God does not let him sit in it...He sees how much PAIN David's consequence has caused. So He uses His power to stop it. We go through the consequences of others' sin (and our own) all the time. Think about 9/11 or Columbine, but even in these extreme circumstances, God is the same God and in the pain, He brings mercy and healing. Hallelujah.
