Left Handed Warriors

David’s warriors were well trained for battle. So well trained we find they could shoot arrows right handed and left handed (I Chronicles 12:2 NIV).


The year my mother turned eighty I received an almost illegibly written letter. I wondered if her age had robbed her penmanship until I read her end-note. “I’m practicing writing left-handed just in case I hurt my right arm.” Mom thought she needed to be doubly prepared for battle.


Maybe we should all take lessons from David’s warriors and my elderly mother.
