David put his hand into the bag and took out a stone, hurled it with the sling, and struck the Philistine on the forehead. (From 1 Samuel 17)

There are a lot of things in our life that seem like a Goliath...things that seem too big and powerful to conquer.  Problems at school, at your church, where you work, financial matters, rivalries with a coworker or enemy, disputes with your boss or Pastor, bullying, troubles with your teenager, family issues that seem to have destroyed your chances at reconciliation, cancer, chronic pain, addiction to sex/alcohol/drugs, a particular temptation that always gets the best of you, or anything that just seems too much for you.  Just as the Philistine that David faces, so we must face down these issues that seem larger than us!  However, nothing is larger and more powerful than our God!  God was with David as he slung that rock and God will be with you as you take on the challenges before you!  God helped David conquer his foe and God will be at your side with your problem if you ask!  We are not alone in our battles and whether it’s sin we face or a difficult situation, the LORD will show us the way to victory!  Amen!
