(NIV Bible)
A few years ago I started taking Swing Dancing classes… The challenge in the class came when you had to practice those steps with a partner who had not quite perfected the same move. 1 Kings 8.46-61 Reference: v.61 “But your hearts must be fully committed to the Lord our God, to live by his decrees and obey his commands, as at this time.” (NIV Bible)
Joab had to stand up to David as his mourning for Absalom affected the whole army 2 Samuel 18.1-19.8 Reference: v. 6 You love those who hate you and hate those who love you.
