But Hezekiah did not respond appropriately to the kindness shown him, and he became proud.
2 Chronicles 32:25a
Our response to God’s grace
What we freely and undeservedly receive, we should readily freely and undeservedly give.
Isaiah to Hezekiah:
Some of your very own sons will be taken away into exile. They will become eunuchs who will serve in the palace of Babylon’s king.
2 Kings 20:18
Hezekiah to Isaiah:
Then Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “This message you have given me from the Lord is good.” For the king was thinking, “At least there will be peace and security during my lifetime.“
2 Kings 20:19
Not sure I have words for Hezekiah’s uncaring response about the future his sons would face.
Celebrate the kindness of God. Praise Him continually kindness.
