The story of David and Goliath
The
story of David and Goliath might be told in this fashion: The Philistines
had a giant named Goliath. He would yell at the Israelites, "Come
out and fight. If your giant defeats me, we will be your slaves; but if
I defeat him you'll
be our slaves.
David a clear minded boy, went to the king and said, "If you will let me, I will take care of this fellow." This went over well with the king. He said, "If you want to take on the giant, you may do it."
David collected five smooth stones and proceeded in the direction of the giant. He swung his slingshot, and the stone smacked the giant right on the forehead. And Goliath toppled over, dead.
What a story! And what does it teach? A simple truth. You are faced with a Goliath. Everybody is. But no difficulty is bigger than you are when you are united with God. Together you and God have the power to do mighty things of which you know not.
