We recognize that David was chosen by God but we also see, reading scripture, that David was a sinner.  Like him, we need to seek God for our perfection because without God we cannot be made into the person He want’s us to be.   In today’s scripture, David pleads to God to not abandon him.   And God did not abandon him.  Despite all that David had done, God’s love for His children is evident.   And then made permanent in the blood of the resurrected Christ.

Psalm 27:4-10
