In Second Samuel chapter 6 when the Ark is brought back to Jerusalem verse 14 is phenomenal to imagine: “And David danced before the LORD with all his might, wearing a priestly tunic.”  And David’s words in verse 21 are something for you and I to consider in our lives today – “So I am willing to act like a fool in order to show my joy in the LORD.”  Are you willing to act like a fool to show your joy in God?  Have you ever danced before God with all your might?  Think you ever could?

Worship God: Today’s readings in Second Samuel remind me of the David Crowder song “Undignified:”

    Hi Mike, today’s reading showing that David was so happy and joyful when he brought up the ark of the Lord to the City of David echoes my feelings of joy at the moment when I turned on the computer this morning and was able to re-access your blog and website again – no hacker can take this away from us:) I am surprised how much I actually missed your blog for the last couple of days when I had no access. I took it for granted. Thank you for your good work for the Lord, this blog and the community, God bless.

    Likewise, happy to see the blog back! Really missed it. Had to scramble to find alternate ways of doing the Bible readings. What happened? Is there a way we can help?
    God bless.
