Sunday's Surprise

A progressive mindset is acquired during the oddest moments in a person's life. The bible clearly illustrates the events that occurred between the Philistines and the Israelites(1 Samuel 17:3). For 40 days and nights the Philistines came down to declare a battle on the Israelites(1 Samuel 17:3) ...
 
Goliath a nine feet, nine inch giant, the champion of Gath(1 Samuel 17:4) and carrier of a bronze scale armor that weighed 125 pounds(1 Samuel 17:5) was unaware that David the youngest son of Jesse would be concerned with removing the disgrace from Israel(1 Samuel 17:26). What amazed us was the manner in which David's oldest brother Eliab was annoyed by David's conversation with the other men(1 Samuel17:28). This encouraged us because David was being measured by his age, size, and experience; but that didn't impede David from stating that the Lord that rescued him from the paws of the lion and bear that attempted to kill him(1 Samuel 17:37) would be in his corner during the battle. With something so simple as five smooth stones(1 Samuel 17:40) David obtained the victory(1 Samuel 17:48) and defeated the Philistine with a sling and a stone(1 Samuel 17:50) ...
 
The moral to this Sunday morning teaching is that you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover or listen to any negative minded people who try to keep you from reaching your dream ...
