This week we'll be talking together about the story of David and Goliath. Easy, huh? After all, everyone knows the story of David and Goliath. Or... do we? What was the relationship between David and his oldest brother Eliab? "I know how conceited you are and how wicked your heart is.." he said. Do you think we might hear Eliab's words describing David come back to haunt David as our story continues? Hmmm... Why, exactly, did David go out to fight Goliath, anyway? Did you notice how intently David got all the benefits straight of what would come to the man who killed the giant? Or... am I just being cynical?
No doubt it took great courage to face Goliath. And... David had a choice. What about you? Who are the 'giants' in your life that call you to do battle? We all struggle with things and situations that seem insurmountable... until we realize that we have powerful tools and a mighty God at our side!
What does this story give you the courage to face?
See you on Sunday.
