The Biblical Remix – Silent Morning

2 Samuel 3:12-16 – http://bit.ly/biblicalremixsilentmorning

When David bounced from the kingdom in fear for his life, King Saul gave David’s wife, Michal, to another dude named Paltiel.

Years later, no longer running from the king, David makes a demand to return his “boo” Michal.  The new king accepts his request and takes Michal from Paltiel.  As Michal is being transported to David’s new crib, Paltiel follows her and is crying the whole time.

After some distance, Paltiel is ordered to go back home.

In the morning when Paltiel woke up, this Noel song was playing in his head:

“Silent Morning, I wake up and you’re not by my side, Silent Morning, You know how hard I try…”

Reflection:

Paltiel must have really loved Michal.  Dude was behind her crying the whole time, and in public.  Who says men don’t have emotions?

Even though we men don’t usually say it or show it, we are deeply sensitive creatures.  Okay I am done being sensitive.  Bye.  LOL.
