Many of us know the story of David and how he faced the giant. With his faith in God and knowing that He would protect him, he picked up the smooth rock and that is the rock that brought down the giant in his life. What giants are you facing? Is it a career that doesn't seem to go in the direction you had hoped? Is it an addiction to drugs, alcohol or food? Is it a failed marriage or relationship? Or is it a little of everything? The rocks in life are few and far between...the ones that we can actually pick up and throw at these "giants" in our lives. Lately I've had to face some pretty big giants in my life and I've been searching for the "rock". Sometimes I've found it and other times I just hold back the giant till I'm able to handle facing my giants.
The other morning I was on my way to work and the sun was just right, it's the kind that just hits your face at the right angle and makes you feel the warmth....but then I had this sickening feeling wash over me. It wasn't because of the sun or the warmth; it was because of what's going on in my life. I stopped enjoying that moment to worry about a giant that I'm facing. I wish I could say right now that I threw my rock and the giant came tumbling down, but that's not the case....yet.
Don't be discouraged, don't lose track and don't lose heart. These giants in our lives are here to teach us lessons, to strengthen our faith and to make us realize where we're really heading. I'm not afraid of what today brings because I know that in my heart I have the most important "rock".....
