When the men were returning home after David had killed the Philistine, the women came out from all the towns of Israel to meet King Saul with singing and dancing, with joyful songs and with tambourines and lyres. As they danced, they sang: ‘Saul has slain his thousands, and David his tens of thousands.’ Saul was very angry; this refrain displeased him greatly. ‘They have credited David with tens of thousands,’ he thought, ‘but me with only thousands. What more can he get but the kingdom?’ And from that time on Saul kept a close eye on David.

Life isn't meant to live alone. Jesus created us to live in a community. We > Me should be our mentality. No Mavericks fly in this airspace. Collaboration fuels creativity. Everyone contributes and we all have a voice. If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together. We clear our bench and everyone plays! Life is better together. Written by Ryan R.
King David is described in the New Testament as a man after God’s own heart, meaning that he aligned his own heart with that of God’s.
