²¹ David retorted to Michal, “I was dancing before the Lord, who chose me above your father and all his family! He appointed me as the leader of Israel, the people of the Lord, so I celebrate before the Lord.²² Yes, and I am willing to look even more foolish than this, even to be humiliated in my own eyes!” —2 Samuel 6:20-22 NLT
