What Are You Running From?

Do you recall the bible story about a young boy that was faced with a bear and killed it? Then he killed a lion. A while later in his life he ran up against an actual giant and as experienced in killing wild animals as he was, he realized that this was different. “This is a trained warrior.” he thought. The boy knew he didn’t stand a chance and so he turned and ran home to safety. He quit because he knew he could not win. Remember that? Yeah, I don’t either.

The way I remember it was that the boy had so much faith in God that as young and small as he was, he stood in front of the giant and challenged him. The boy, his name was David by the way, being small, took something else very small and killed Goliath with it.

What are you running from? What Goliath is in your life that threatens you? Are you afraid to speak Gods word in a situation? Are you worried about what people might think about you? What feeling or worry has become a giant in your life? Why? Why is it a giant in your life? What is going on in your life that prevents God from working thru you? What ever it is, give it up. Ask God why it bothers you and when He answers, and He will…. Give it to Him.
