2 Sam 20
Mistake after mistake David made.
First he had left the concubines as widows. When I read this I felt so unfair.
second, he made Amasa as the commander instead of Joab. Joab killed Amasa. Joab would have rebel against David and caused another unroar for David.
david has just settle the rebellion of his son Absalom.
David was a fighter, but not a ruler of his internal household. He was indeed great to rule Israel, Judah and against the enemies of God. But where is the balance?
It is sad to see our ministry expanded but yet in the end loses our love ones. But what is God intend? What has God call me to?
God has called me to Him. He gave me a family, for the vision He showed me was big and it probably need generations of work. He gave me Josef my first born. He made me a father, a husband, the head of my houshold.
I am not in ministry, then get the household in order, that they may walk the same way I walk with God. When I am in ministry, let them see how the Lord lead, and I follow, that they may follow too.
Teach me this balance between minstry and my family. My family is my ministry too. Amen.
