Once the child dies, David resigns himself to the will of God, with no blame, with no finger-pointing, with no defiant fist-shaking, with no “but God would never do that, God can’t do that.” David shows his submission to the will of God. This is a fruit of true, biblical repentance. Repentance is a turning from sin in head, heart, and hand, and turning to God in trust—head, heart, and hand. Take heed that with sin, you reap what you sow. But you can trust God because He is gracious and righteous.
