1 Samuel 15:11 - "It repenteth me that I have set up Saul to be king: for he is turned back from following me, and hath not performed my commandments. And it grieved Samuel; and he cried unto the Lord all night." What a powerful verse! We're either for God, or against God. When we sin and disobey God, it not only dishonors and hurts Him, but it hurts others as well. When Saul turned away from the Lord, it hurt both God and Samuel. It hurt Samuel to the point that he cried all night in prayer. On the other hand, Samuel was so close to God that he shared the same heartbreak with Him. Are we like Saul causing God sorrow, or are we like Samuel with the heart of God and praying for those who are stumbling in sin? - Garrett Longest
