2 Samuel 13

2 Samuel 13Tamar was a virgin and it seemed impossible for him to do anything to her. 2 Samuel 13:2

“Come to be with me, my sister!” 2 Samuel 13:11

“Don’t, my brother! Don’t force me. Don’t do this wicked thing.” 2 Samuel 13:12

But since he was stronger than she, he raped her. Then he hated her more than he had loved her. 2 Samuel 13:14-15

Lord, you hate sin. And sin fulfilled… never is. It always leads to a desire for more. Without you, remaining pure and holy is impossible. But with you, ALL things are possible. Please restore me to you.

 

We are to be in the world but not of it: separated internally, not externally. Oswald Chambers
