—1 Chronicles 15:25-29
by: Linda Harris.
Without any thought to what others might think, David celebrated with joy. His wife Michal, who should have supported him, disapproved of his actions more than anyone else. As Saul’s daughter, perhaps she had picked up on Saul’s bitterness and jealousy toward David.
When you worship, does thinking about others’ impressions of you turn your attention away from God? Do you worry that if you raise your hands others will disapprove? Do you wonder if other people like your singing voice? When we worship, God is our only audience. While we don’t want to distract others from their worship, we should not be overly concerned with their reactions.
