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 out 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.
