“And he wrote in the letter saying, Set Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retire ye from him that he may be smitten, and die” (2 Samuel 11:15).
Even when you realize how wrong you have been, you may think you’ve only hurt yourself. I don’t want to add to your discouragement, but that is simply not true. When one gets to the point that she keep on sinning to cover other sin, that person, most likely, will take others down with her. Look what happened when David sinned. Not only did his sin affect Bathsheba, but Uriah lost his life. You may feel you would never let your life spin out of control. It happens and, if sin is allowed to run rampant, it may leave behind some casualties.
