Today was about King David's flee and the people he met along the way. And then about how Absalom was coming after him- tomorrow one will die... But today David met many people some were nice and helpful by giving him food and wine and others were mean by throwing stones at him. Then Absalom got an army together and is going to go after David.
I am so glad that I found your blog! My 2008 New year's resolution was to read the entire Bible. Well it is 2009 and I am still going ;) I read this chapter not too long ago. You what I found amazing about King David? After he was annointed King he refused to harm/kill the reigning King of the time even though he was not Godly. This really spoke to me from the stand point of submission to authority.
ReplyDeleteAnyway - I am going to become a follower so I can keep up with what you are reading. I just read 1 Chronicles and started Romans today.
That is so cool- and as far as submission to authority- the husband is the authority in the home so David can teach us wives how to submit more and respect our husbands even when they are not godly or even earn our respect.
