Questions for 2 Sam 16-17.

1. Do you find it uncomfortable that you can't get your head around how God can be in control of this world? Or Do you find it a great comfort that God is very powerful and since you are not able to control the smallest things are you willing to trust God for your ultimate security?

2. It is not a great comfort to hear that you are more sinful, more wicked, more evil than you realised. However how do you respond to the God who pursues you and demonstrates that you are more loved than you could ever imagine?

3. How are you likely to respond when you hear God call you to repent. Will you turn back to the God who has never turned his back on you?
