well who would have thought it

In the midst of all my troubles,...well the core of it all I come to realize that I have been dealing with Saul. Saul who tried to kill David, Saul who planned and schemed against God's anointed behind their backs, who slaughtered those who wore the priestly robes and worshiped God. I don't think I'm an anointed one, I also don't think there is much or anything special to me. I believe to be an average Joe, but as I read 1 Samuel and so on. I see how Saul behaved, how he went from one feeling and went straight to its complete opposite. How his words were never stable and his actions spoke of what was in his heart. What pure ungodly things were in his heart. I believe that I dealt or am dealing with the same thing. I am dealing with Saul....
And like David, in all the opportunities I had to act out in rage, to take my vengeance, to fight for what I thought was right. I turned my back to and did what I would hope be what God wanted me to do. I pray that my Saul finds the Lord, that they may gain fear of Our precious Lord our God, and that they may see how His grace and love is sufficient and that they may try to rectify their lives according to God's will. which ever it is.
