Absalom’s Rebellion

This week’s passage is 2 Samuel 14:25-15:12. Absalom’s desire to be seen and heard.  Absalom’s words, “I wish I was judge, I would give you justice”. God is the one who sees all and brings the right judgment. 2 Samuel 12:11, I will cause your own house to turn against you. Absalom’s pride, he believed he could bring justice, but his justice was really vengeance. People can sometimes let their free will lead them into believing they know best. God is the only King who can bring true justice and reign in true love. He sees everyone and hears everyone. No king in the history of kings can compare to God. We enter life when we surrender it to God.
