4.10.12 the david difference

bible reading: 1 samuel 14-16, 1 corinthians 1

reel thoughts:
David and Saul were so different, and the biggest one was confidence.  David had no fear and was confident.  Saul, despite having God's blessing initially and God's spirit initally, never was able to fully tap into the confidence that comes with being chosen by God.  We've got to be more David's willing to confront and slay the giants in our lives, than Saul, unconfident in our God given talents and abilities.  Here's another thing: David's gifts and talents made room for him before the king, and again, he was best when he was his natural self.  I don't know if we ever saw that with Saul.
