Listen to Today's Devotion God called David a “man after his own heart.” One might read his story and wonder what God saw in him. He fell as often as he stood. He stared down Goliath, yet ogled at Bathsheba. He could lead armies but couldn’t manage a family. Raging David. Weeping David. Bloodthirsty. God-hungry. Eight wives. One God. A man after God’s own heart? That God saw him as such gives hope to us all. Straight-A souls find David’s story disappointing. But we need David’s story, most of us do. Giants lurk in our neighborhoods. Giants of rejection and failure and revenge. Giants. We must face them, yet we need not face them alone. Focus on God. The times David did, giants fell. The days he didn’t, David did. Lift your eyes, giant-slayer! The God who made a miracle out of David stands ready to make one out of you.
