David was an extra-miler.
If not, why would he jeopardize his life by pursuing lions and bears because they came to pick his father's lambs?

Faithfulness is the highlight here.

Would you keep working well if no one is watching, or planning to reward you handsomely?

God knew indeed that David had passed the test of his #HumbleBeginnings. Therefore we have this account.

"He chose David also his servant, and took him from the sheepfolds:
From following the ewes great with young he brought him to feed Jacob his people, and Israel his inheritance.
So he fed them according to the integrity of his heart; and guided them by the skilfulness of his hands." Psalms 78:70-72

We chose to include verse 72 because "God uses the days of #HumbleBeginnings to prepare us for the throne."

Faithfulness is God's voucher of payment and promotion.
How faithful are you?

We're gradually approaching the end of #ChristmasStories16
Sure it's been great blessing.
Good evening.
