Our reading challenge for the day is 2 Samuel 21-24. I’ll hit a few highlights. You make comments too and fill in the gaps. What strikes you as specially significant?
2 Samuel 21 - The troubles of the kingdom continue to follow David. We see him worn out with warfare and strife. Our time comes and goes. We have different seasons in our life. David is leaving his active adulthood.
2 Samuel 22 - David sings praise to God, both for who he is and what he has done. Both are worthy topics for our songs and prayers.
2 Samuel 23 - We have a summary of David’s final reflections as well as a catalog of his mightiest followers. I wonder what kind of reflections we have to leave behind?
2 Samuel 24 - Our sin brings consequences on others. So may our prayers and repentance. As David considered how he could live in a manner pleasing to God, may we also have our Lord’s grace and wisdom.
