Maybe David's biggest moment

I have just been wowed by David's humility and leadership as a person and as a father. I Chronicles 22 walks us Thru David passing the baton to His son Solomon, but the baton is huge. The passing is the building of the house of God, the Temple for the Lord. There was nothing bigger or more amazing than to build the Temple for the Lord. However God tells David he doesn't want him to build instead he wants his son Solomon to build it. Davids' reaction is priceless. He calls builders from all over, buys all the material, and begins setting up his son to succeed. He didn't pout about not building it. He put all his energy into making sure his son had every chance of success. As a father, this challenged me to be sure that I do everything in my power to make sure my kids Callie Joy and Riley are set up to succeed. Not just in life, but to succeed in pleasing God and building His Kingdom. Then in verse 11-13 David says a prayer for Solomon. The prayer request God to give Him success, wisdom, and understanding as well as to be strong and courageous. Well later on Solomon is described as the wisest person to ever live. Coincidence? What a legacy David left his son. What humility David (a King who always had power and control) had to step aside and let someone else lead. This has to be one of the most amazing things David did on earth. What en example for us as both fathers and leaders to learn from. Good stuff.
