Scripture Struck @ 2 Sam 16:5-13
David’s Misery
Life is like a wheel. We are familiar with the reality of Gulong ng Palad. Sometimes you’re up; sometimes you’re down. Life changes like the weather.
David had his glory days. There were times when he was basking with success. All lights were turned on him. He was the center of pomp and praises.
But times change. His favorite son usurped his power. His loyal soldiers turned traitors. Now he is a fugitive in a kingdom he built. He is in fear for his life.
Times of crisis are times of testing. In fire, gold is tested. Here David’s faith shines. His greatness is manifested. When insulted, he takes no offense; when humiliated he forgives. The real mark of greatness is bearing the miseries of life with faith and courage! 😊
