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
This woman you call Mother

BEAUTIFUL ADVICE
Joab walked next to David. “You’ve been silent this entire trip home. What are you thinking about?” David glanced up. “Can’t help but relive that scene when I first met Samuel.

What’s it like to have the LORD’s Spirit alive in you?” David wiped his… Continue reading A LEGEND PASSES

LOYALTY TEST
David heard the approaching army before he could see them. He entered the cave behind his men. “Quickly, go as far back in the cave as you can. If they look in here we don’t want them to see anything but dirt.” They filed back and settled in. The army stopped outside. David turned and… Continue reading LOYALTY TEST
Sometimes you just gotta scratch your head and say, “Huh?”
April 19 is a date that means a lot of things to various people. Some people lost a loved one from an event that happened some years ago. Other folks are maimed from a senseless deed that held meaning to the person who instigated the act of violence. Long before Waco and Oklahoma City stole… Continue reading Sometimes you just gotta scratch your head and say, “Huh?”
DIVINE CONTROL
David turned back and scanned the horizon past Keilah when he crested the hill south of town. No dust clouds meant no troupes coming near any time soon. Saul must still be assembling his raiding party. He’ll be here. There’s no doubt. God’s warning was too clear to think otherwise. David’s men had fanned out… Continue reading DIVINE CONTROL
