Some people think of the movers and shakers of the bible as special people.Perhaps a large neon sign over their head that said(do what he says,god told him to),that way everyone else knew to follow the special guy.When in fact,it is pointed out repeatedly that they were just normal people,with normal people failings,and no neon signs.Now I was not there,so I cannot attest to the truth of these stories.However,even I can see the wisdom in them.I do not believe God gave young David special skill,and a bionic arm to sling a nuclear stone at Goliath.I do believe David's conviction of his being on the side of right gave him the courage and steadiness needed to kill Goliath.Presto,chango,David made his own neon sign.Too many christians are hiding behind their religion for the sake of their own comfort.Jesus said"I will spit out the look warm".
