Then David said to Gad, "I am in great distress. Let us now fall into the hand of the Lord for His mercies are great, but do not me fall into the hand of man."
David was grieved as he realized his folly in numbering the people. The consequences of his pride would cause ramifications that would have far reaching effect. David was quick to remember, that the Lord was gracious and merciful, and it would far better to trust in Him. Sometimes, it's hard to remember, unless we are in a similar situation that God is gracious and merciful, and it's better to trust in Him.
