Experiencing Betrayal and Rejection (Sermon from Psalm 3)

David’s own son, Absalom, conspires to steal the throne and David finds himself banished from Jerusalem. Psalm 3 is thought to be David’s song on this occasion. Though David had made many mistakes and was suffering the consequences of his own sins, he continued to trust that God would deliver him from the hands of his enemies. When we are betrayed and rejected by those closest to us, do we turn to God and turn our enemies over to his judgment?
