Jesus lives in me :)

Day 104.

So Saul is really determined to kill David no matter what.. He learns about the priest who gave David some bread, a sowrd, and inquired of God for him, and then judged the priest as conspiring agaisnt him along with David. Just because of that, Saul punished the priest and his father's whole family by killing them. Did Saul have no respect for God at all? Killing the priest, which was God's anointed people, and not only that, his whole family as well.. was Saul not scared of getting punished from God? Saul was too caught up and got blinded by the problem infront of him, that he forgot all about the things around him. It's like standing right in front of this wall, and not being able to see anything else but the wall. And Saul was soo focused on getting that wall out of the way, that he totally forgot about God. All i've been reading is Saul chaing after David, in pusuit of him, trying to take his life.. Saul had a very strong determination, too bad it was placed on the wrong things. One interesting is that when David was constantly running away from Saul, what he found comfort and security in was writing songs. Many of the psalms that David wrote, im guessing is written when people are after his life, because we can see that from the psalms. Writing songs were like David's source of strength and hope, and many of them are really meaningful too.
