David stepped out of his house and into the morning light. Men were fixing houses destroyed by the raiding Amalekites a few days earlier. Abishai approached. “Shalom David. Ziklag is nearly rebuilt. Today should about have it done.” David smiled. “Very nice, I’m grateful so many men put my roof on first. I didn’t expect… Continue reading FATAL NEWS

I'm a truck driver turned writer. My writing drives people to Jesus.
I love sunsets/sunrises, dark chocolate, coffee, cats and dogs (as long as their owners pick up after them) and solitude. My relationship with God through Jesus Christ is most important to me, not a religion. This writing gig is all God's idea. I only wish to bring more attention to Jesus with it.

“Achish is here to see you.” David stopped chewing his lunch. “Achish..he’s never come to see us at Ziklag. I wonder what’s up.” He glanced at Abigail as he stood. She shrugged her shoulders. David walked out to see a stern Achish waiting for him. Achish barely smiled as the two men greeted each other.… Continue reading NOT TO WAR
UNEXPECTED LOSS
Abishai walked next to David and matched his pace. “Are you glad we aren’t fighting against our own people?” David kept looking forward. “Of course, this whole time with the Philistines has been an experience I never imagined I’d ever have.

Joab swallowed. “I know you know how to use a spear. You taught me. Tell me he’s… Continue reading ENEMY HIDEOUT

SECOND GRACE
The footsteps stopped outside David’s tent. Heavy breathing interrupted the conversation. Joab wasn’t as quiet as David had wished for more sleep. “You can’t go in there. I’m under strict orders. Nobody is to awaken David.” A young man’s voice said. “But, he sent me to spy out King Saul to see if he’s coming.… Continue reading SECOND GRACE
