What amazes me is
that the God of power is also the God of love. And He made that
choice. God is love and God is choosing to love and to be the God who
loves beyond measure. While as God He is righteous, He is performing
acts of righteousness out of love for us. His righteousness is for
love not the other way around. Righteousness is the act of pure love.
Just as David's love for Jonathan was pure and his concern out of
pure love, God's love is pure, and His concern genuine. (2 Sam 1:26)
We as humans are gifted with the fact that we are so short sighted and are seldom not in awe when things happen to us that may be out of the ordinary routine, whether for good or bad. Blind sided though we are we also demonstrate remarkable resiliance. I am part of that resiliance and am here to help, through my writings and through discussions with the reader. So sit back, buckle your seat belts, and enjoy the ride.

Teach me to teach (part 3)
The Levites also
showed how not to follow, that is by not hastening when they were so
instructed by God through Joash to gather money to repair God's
house. (2 Chronicles 24:5) But then they obeyed God and were blessed.
(2 Chronicles 24:11) and as men of God who were the leaders commanded
the Levites to bring various items into His house (offerings and
vessels specifically) (2 Chronicles 34:9; Ezra 8:29-33)

Teach me to teach (part 2)
And David himself
appointed specifically Levites to praise and ministered to God's
ark,where His word was held. The Levites or specific members of the
tribe were in charge of the vessels and instruments of the sanctuary
(1 Chronicles 9:26-29). as well as clothing and jewels (1 Chronicles
29:8) Again it was delegated to certain of the Levites. And the
leadership was passed down from David to Solomon to see God's will
was carried out. (1 Chronicles 29)

Teach me so that I may teach
The Levites were
separated to carry God's Word. (Numbers 10:8) As Christians we are
separated from the world to carry His Word in season and out of
season. (Ephesians 4:2-4) David knew if God said to do something a
certain way it had better be done that way. (1 Chronicles 15:2). And
because of His help, the Levites felt as though they could carry the
responsibility. (1 Chronicles 15:26)
