Day 216 - 2 Kings 21 & Psalm 30

 Julie

We read about two more kings that choose to follow the path of idols instead of following God. It is amazing how often corruption takes over they choose to follow that path. It really goes to show just how easily people will live in the flesh. 

This seems to mostly be a psalm of thanks to God for his protection and for what he provides.

This is a short passage and speaks of 2 kings that follow many other gods and idols.  It's interesting that Manasseh did not follow God and makes you wonder why he strayed so far since his father, Hezekiah, seemed to be doing right in God's eyes.  Are they not teaching the next generation?  Is that where we are failing as a people?  

The psalm does seem to be thanks to God.  It also feels like a reminder that God will come to you in your time of need.  We just need to be prayerful, faithful, and patient, and open to listen.
