It is amazing how the life of this king turned from bad to worse. He lived the balance of his life as fugitive and was killed by some men that plotted against him. His life, after his defeat with Edom, moved further away from the Lord and the Lord moved further away from him. It seems like his life was not redeemable and his death was inevitable. He died in Lachish around 767 BC and was brought back to be buried with his ancestors. The book of 2 Kings 14 record his life and deeds as well.
Hopefully heading out of work relatively early and making my way up to Boston to pay my last respects (on earth) to Donna's mom with Irene and David. Glad the routes are not taking me through NYC so that should make life relatively easier. Got stuff done down here so as to keep Saturday as free as possible. A lot of driving in a short period time these next few days.
Praise for today: I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes I will remember your miracles of long ago. I will meditate on all your works and consider all your mighty deeds. Psalm 77:11-12
