2 Samuel 21David’s major battles had been fought and won. His tragic mistake with Bathsheba and its consequences are now bad memories. But there is more to do. Life will always throw us unfinished business. Avenging the Gibeonites and removing a few more Philistine giants are all part of the job. David would leave behind a legacy of warfare as well as a legacy of spirituality. Both were aspects of who he was. God does not call us to eradicate our personality, not to divest ourselves of all things that would not be considered religious or spiritual. He calls us to be real, to be relevant.
LORD, give us the courage to live our whole lives for you, not just the religious part.
