FROM TODAYS DAILY REFLECTION: ...when God gave David a vision for leading Israel, David hadn’t killed Goliath yet, hadn’t befriended Jonathan, hadn’t “slain his ten thousands,” and hadn’t evaded the spear of Saul. At the time of that early call, David hadn’t yet married Michal, hadn’t led the mighty men of Israel, and hadn’t fled from Saul for years. Had God allowed it, David could have become king of Israel long before Saul gave Michal to marry another man, before David acted insane at Abigail’s insistence, and before David spared the life of Saul on two separate occasions. God could have done that. Instead, David spent years in preparation and planning so when God gave the throne to the poet shepherd of Israel, he was ready. Like David, our talents and dreams often share many intersections, but it can take years for them to become aligned in the ways God always intended. We can trust God’s timing for the perfect alignment. by Charity Singleton Craig.
