David was a man after God’s own heart. Yet he sinned. He coveted and slept with Uriah’s wife Bathsheba, had Uriah killed, and took Bathsheba as his own. Where does any of this show that he was a man after God’s own heart? In Psalm 51 David’s heart is revealed. He repents of his sin and asks for restoration. God, in His mercy and compassion, restores David. That same mercy and compassion are available to us. Just like David, we need only ask.
