And David behaved himself wisely in all his ways; and the Lord was with him.
David was in a dangerous position. King Saul was afraid of David. Saul got very depressed and twice tried to kill David. David was to become the next king of Israel. But instead of acting smart-alecky and arrogant, he behaves himself wisely. This made Saul even more afraid of him. How is our attitude around others? Let’s learn from David’s example and act in a wise manner. There’s plenty of foolishness in the world. We, as Christians, can have fun, yes. We can and should be happy, yes. But we must act wisely in every situation, in every place we go.
