From I Chronicles 15 - 17:
1. It is obvious from reading I Chronicles 15 that David learned his lesson after the incident with Uzzah. We always need to go back to the bible, God's word, and prayer when something happens we don't understand.
2. It is unfortunate that Michal was more concerned with appearances than heart matters. David was sincere, while Michal was keyed into appearances.
3. David was also generous and caring. He offered food to all the people after the blessing - something he did not have to do.
4. What about you, God? - Even though God had blessed him tremendously and given him victory on all sides, as well as tremendous success, yet he still was more concerned about the things of God. I hope that I can have this same attitude for all of my life also. God needs to be first in my life, and deserves to be. Anything and everything I have is because of His blessing. Nothing I have is because of anything that I have done. What is even better is that when God promises to bless David even further, he says, "Who am I that you should consider me?" David was a wonderful role model.
