Our Scripture reading today is 2 Samuel 12:23, "But now he is dead, wherefore should I fast? can I
bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me."
The time to get right with God is always now. David's infant son died because of David's sin.
God is more than willing to forgive, but there are consequences that come with our
sin. There is no better time than the present to turn from win and turn back to God. This
is not a call to get saved again. This is call to repent of sin and return to close fellowship
with God. Sin does not impact our relationship with God, but it does impact our
fellowship. What is keeping you from getting right with God today?
We also see a promise in this verse that infants who die will be in Heaven. This would
include very young children who have no understanding of personal sin. God is just and
merciful.
