These words from a shepherd boy who became a king among his people...

"When I kept silent, I was roaring within continuously.

In silence was I stressed; the Lord’s hand was heavy upon me.

I considered my sin, and ruefully, as I thought to myself, more were uncovered in my mind that I had not acknowledged prior.

I vowed to myself and God that those awful acts had power over me no more.

What was the result?

The Lord’s plentiful forgiveness covered every part of it, from the most terrible to even the least of piddling trifles."
