Anthems: Week Four

In the fourth week of the "Anthems" series, Pastor Nate Gagne compares Lewis Capaldi's song 'Someone You Loved' to King David's Psalm 41. In the song, Capaldi laments his lost love, in the Psalm, King David laments the betrayal by his best friend while on his death bed. In both instances, the writer is haunted by the loss of someone they trusted deeply. Similarly, Jesus was betrayed by one of His own disciples which led to His crucifixion. Instead of becoming upset, Jesus lays His concerns down at the feet of His Father, God. The more you regret what you've done or what's been done to you, the less you are in alignment with the principle of forgiving those who have hurt you as you'd like them to similarly forgive you if you had hurt them.
