Welcome to Piniel's Animated Bible!
Have you ever had someone say something mean to you or try to start a fight? Itās hard to stay calm, right? Even King David had to deal with someone being very mean to him!
While David was traveling, a man named Shimei started following him, shouting mean things and even throwing rocks and dust! Davidās soldiers wanted to stop him, but David showed amazing self-control.
Watch this story from 2 Samuel Chapter 16 to see:
- Why Shimei was so angry and what he did to the King.
- How David chose to stay humble and trust God instead of getting angry.
- Why being the "bigger person" is a sign of true strength.
The Lesson for Kids: You don't have to be mean just because someone else is! True strength is having the self-control to stay calm and forgive others, even when they aren't being kind to you.
