“We never saw it on this fashion.”~ Mk. 2:12
Yes, God chose David; but David chose the five smooth stones. There are times God expects us to choose the best means to use in taking care of the giant obstacles in our path. We are all different—different in temperaments, tastes, and talents. We are to consider this, and choose what is best, and most suitable for us, in winning over our Goliaths.
We cannot always overcome the difficulties of life in traditional ways. Saul’s armor does not fit everybody. In fact, to use it can be burdensome to us, and cause defeat, rather than victory. Most of God’s people are not trained military tacticians, but, left to themselves, are excellent with their own unorthodox slingshots.
You choose what you’re comfortable with. That’s the way to decapitate the foe that faces you. Never let anyone force you to go in their armor; you were not fitted for it, and it certainly does not fit you. "One size DOES NOT fit all."
Your mini stone is mightier than Saul’s military sword, if it’s what you are most at home with. David “ran” to meet his problem, head-on, with a holy assurance. Why? Because he was using the thing he was most at ease with—a simple sling and a stone.
Dare to be different!
Amen brother thank you
