 David replied, I fasted and wept while the child was alive. For I said, perhaps the Lord will be gracious to me and let the child live. Why should I fast when he is dead? Can I bring him back again? I will go to him one day, but he cannot return to me. This is the word of the Lord. Might the people of God say amen. Amen. You may be seated in the presence of the Lord. I want to talk today with the Holy Spirit's guidance and with your prayers on the subject forward after failure.
