    This is such a heart wrenching account! How quickly the kingdom goes from the best in the world to divided and defeated.

    We can't expect the good name of a father to bless us continually regardless of our deeds. Our hearts, thoughts, and actions matter. Thankfully we see once again: if we humble ourselves, repent and seek Him then our Heavenly Father will forgive us.
