24 The king and all his attendants who heard all these words showed no fear, nor did they tear their clothes.
What I got today was the danger of having too much power in my life risks me thinking I don't need God. I'm guessing the king felt pretty self-reliant. He didn't need anything from anyone nor did he need to be directed by anyone on how to live his life--even God.
So given my own situation living in the USA, having a job that has created some independent wealth it does seem to create a possibility where I could and maybe do act like the king sometimes. I don't want to ever want to lose my grounding in God and his word. Being conscious of that fact hopefully snaps me back from those moments of acting like I'm the king of my domain.
