"But the thing David had done was evil in the sight of the Lord."
David, after experiencing all the victories that the Lord had brough him, now turned to a dark side of self, being entangled in sin against God. All the prayer and communion with God, now turned into the intrigue of adultery, plotting coverup, then turning to conspiracy and murder. Here, the sweet psalmist of Israel, the man after God's own heart, would be caught in the ugliness of his fleshly desire. Judgement was to come swiftly, long term ramifications would raise its ugly head, but it was the Lord and only Him who could begin a work of forgiveness and healing. It would begin with confession and then turning back to Him, a place where we all need to be.
