So it starts like this. I have this problem, with a project I’m working on. It could be a school report, it could be a college essay, it’s just a problem I have. So what do I do? Well firstly I shake myself up and say, “come on I can resolve this problem, I can fix it.” Then eventually I get frustrated and turn to my mates for help, no joy there either they are just as stumped as me. Now I’m getting really mad and running out of options, so whom do I turn to? As a last resort I turn to my family or parents and ask them for help. They can’t help either so I blow my top at the people I am closest with. “For crying out loud why can’t you help, can’t you see this is a real problem in my life, don’t you care?” I’m acting just like the king does in this passage, maybe a little less extreme, I’m probably not going to cut someone’s head off, but never the less I do hurt those who are closest to me and they have not done anything to deserve being hurt. Now I know you would never do that, you would never have a go at a friend, or family because you are having a problem at school or college. So what would you do? What should I do? What Should The King have done? Well just maybe instead of going to all types of fake fortune-tellers, or random people, perhaps we all should go to the God who created the entire universe. Perhaps, just perhaps, the God who created this planet might be able to resolve our problems. If we go to God in prayer whenever we need help or are confused then we can ask him for guidance. What do you think?
