How To Keep Looking Up When You're Feeling Down

In our text today, we are delivered to the scene in the life of King David during a time when he had much to look down about. David learns for the first time of the passing of his child. He must have felt down, mortified, and broken. There’s no doubt he was suffering under immense pain, but we get a glimpse at what he does to rebound when he must have been feeling down. He has a family to provide for, he has a nation to protect and lead, and he has enemies to fight and defeat. And in the midst of it all, he models for us how to handle grief and loss, not if it happens, but when. Grief and loss are universal and inevitable. So how does David make it? How does David keep looking up when he’s been feeling down? That’s what we’re going to dive into in this message.
