Monday

Have you ever been angry or complained about something and then thought, “Well that’s not very Christian, I shouldn’t think those things”? Isn’t it curious that David is doing just that?

Sunday

So I feel like today is… “and now back to our story”. Well, it is, (stop laughing you know what I mean) we had a little side hop to read some very awesome Psalms, which we will be doing as we move through Samuel and Chronicles. So David is met with some rude hospitality. I wonder how this will play out for Nabal?

Friday

Over the next several weeks (on and off) we are going to spend some time reading in the Psalms. Ever wondered just what is a Psalm? (the “p” is silent when you pronounce it). No it is not something found on a tree – that’s a palm.

He engaged in the normal “chit-chat” as his thumb caressed the silver coin in his pocket. He was a deep cover, double agent sitting across the table from the King, and no one in the room had a clue that he was there to bring the whole movement down.

What would you do if you could get revenge on a person who has caused you nothing but trouble your whole life? Would you do it? Would you seek to harm that person? David is given just exactly that opportunity. What do you think he is going to do with it?

Some believe that time looks more like a ribbon with many folds, rather than a straight line. In this passage Exodus 12 from the ancient past is folded up to touch the present day, and what is revealed changes our understanding of Jesus forever.

1 Samuel 18 – 20; Psalm 11, and 59

Wednesday

Saul has begun to realize that his foolish actions in the past, his pride and vanity, have cost him his kingdom, now he will find out that his jealousy and envy of David will cost him everything. Jealousy can sure be an ugly thing. Saul is going to learn that his jealousy of David will only hurt him. Has jealousy or envy caused you pain?
