When You’ve Been Wronged
Conflict in relationships is inevitable, but healing and reconciliation often is not. Time and again we've tried every option and failed, and all we are left with is a load of guilt and pain. Pastor Erwin Lutzer shows how the blessing the Lord gives to those who suffer unjustly is worth the pain involved. He also illustrates the need to leave our broken relationships in the hands of God and move forward in our lives toward freedom.

Choices made in a moment can have repercussions that last for generations. King David made an impulsive choice going after Bathsheba, and a pregnancy resulted. This set in motion the inevitable cover-up, in which her husband was killed to hide the sin. But the sin was uncovered and the outcome involved severe temporal judgment.

A moral mistake can be the mistake of a lifetime. King David made a big mistake with Bathsheba, the wife of Uriah the Hittite. He wanted to keep it a secret—and try as he might, he couldn’t cover it up—even those who haven’t read the Bible have probably heard the story.

Bad decisions. At some point and time we’ve all made one. Sometimes we don’t even know why. But what can we do about them? God offers hope to those willing to listen.

Hindsight is 20-20. Anyone can see the results of a choice after it’s made. It’s tough to predict the future. What do you do when you’ve made a bad call, and have to live with it? The Bible has many examples of this, and today we begin a series on Making the Best of a Bad Decision. We’ll learn that there is hope, even if we’ve really messed things up.

All of this life is a preparation for the one to come. For the believer, this finite life will give way to an eternal one, and what God has prepared for those who have trusted Christ is beyond imagination. Not only will sorrows and pain cease, but we’ll experience “joy inexpressible and full of glory.” Today, a last look at perhaps the most important part of the invisible world: a place called heaven.
