Still, He Loved David!

David said "You walk on the wings of the wind"
May I be so bold as to agree, with him ,for You
Lord have shown Yourself to me in places,
in such ways my very heart You did amaze.


As I traverse Your firmament, You teach me that hearts must have a bent, towards all the ways and whys of You, for it is what will see us through


You give me such astounding signs, and show me Your wondrous designs, of galaxies unknown What a shame that people don't know You, and think You only want to take away their treasures and punish them for their pleasures


They forget that you made David a king , and gave him hundreds of wives, but his lust caused him to have a man killed so that he could take his wife, and only then did you send him his deserved strife


As with all men of unbridled appetites, hundreds weren't enough, he had to have just one more. Still you loved him, even though his choices were impure, David had to learn, as do we all, Your love and mercy saves us from the fall, but not before we answer to Your call

God said that David was "A man after my own heart".... does that infer God is capable of impure thoughts? No. Although I often wonder about His anger and "righteous indignation". But what I take it to mean is that God sees the whole picture and knows us even better than we know ourselves; his grace covers our frailty and he knows whence our failings stem. David has long been my Number One superstar from whom I take much heart. Thinking about these things reminds me of words of Aslan in The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe, somehow, when the Stone Table was cracked and Aslan was reborn; he said something along the lines of: "The Witch only knows of the Magic that exists from the Dawn of Time, but, should she have been able to look back into the Time Before Time existed, then she would have seen that there is there a deeper Magic still". From such thoughts I take comfort and inspiration. We see in ourselves what we can construe. God sees waaaaaaaaaay further back, into cause, effect and beyond into things of which our judgmental minds know nothing. Scripture is THE most delicious food to get one's teeth into, and I love how you highlight here that God is absolutely no kill-joy, but rather has created all things for us to enjoy in the right ways. He is definitely a God of Much Gladness, and it's a shame us Christians so often give Him so much grief and bad publicity by diluting and diverting His glorious intentions. A right-on write, Eileen. God is ever my Rock and my Roll! :)) Kate xx

Wise "keep you feet planted" pen Eileen. When a person has faith then nothing can shake it if the faith is well founded.

Yes, that was indeed a very good parable, or reality, whatever, it struck home. there are so many of these kind of warning, but we tend to not look for them instead we are hellbent on satisfying our lust, whether it is lust for gold or lust for lust sake . . . Good, Eileen . . .

The Son of Sam has been multiplying so fast that soon they will try to overrun the Eden...because we don't watch that door and tie our hands on our back by playing by the rules, when San are not!!!
When prayer aren't enough, take the sword of the Lord and chase the merchants out of the Temple.
