You Low-Down Dirty Dog

Second Samuel chapter nine highlights the rags to riches story of Mephibosheth who wondered why King David would ever show favor to a nobody like him from the town of nowhere. Have you ever thought something like that? Why should the King notice me? Why should I receive such kindness from God? Aren’t I a low-down dirty dog?

I’m sure we all felt those self-loathing sentiments. But the truth is, despite who we are—God still loves us! God does not treat us as our sins deserve. Instead He extends mercy and grace. It’s an amazing story that's true of everyone who believes!
