Giant Slayers - Leif HetlandPrzykład

Show Up David is famous for his defeat of the giant Goliath. In the space of one day, he went from unknown shepherd boy to nationally renowned war hero. Just like that, unexpectedly, his life changed. What we love about David is that he was just like the rest of us—an average person living an average life. He had not spent years in the war academy of Israel, training as an elite warrior. He was not a favorite of the king. He was just a normal person showing up for normal life, and one day normal life brought him an extraordinary opportunity. Yet, we would be wrong if we thought David’s lack of military training meant he had no training at all. Normal life was, in fact, the training ground that uniquely prepared David to take down a giant no one else could. As the youngest son, David had received an unimportant job—watching over the sheep. In that day, this task was reserved for the least significant members of the family. It was a job with very little potential for promotion. Though David could have resented this assignment, it seems he instead embraced it patiently and gave it his all. In other words, he learned to serve, and he learned to be faithful with the mundane and inglorious tasks of life.
