Facing Your Giants
You know your Goliath. You can recognize his walk, the thunder of his voice.
He taunts you with bills you can't pay, people you can't please, habits you can't break, failures you can't forget, and a future you can't face. But just like David, you can face your giant, even if you aren't the strongest, the smartest, the best equipped, or the holiest.
David.
You could read his story and wonder what God saw in him. His life has little to offer the unstained, straight-A saint. He fell as often as he stood, stumbled as often as he conquered. But for those who know the sound of a Goliath, David gives this reminder:
Focus on giants - you stumble.
Focus on God - your giants tumble.
If you're ready to face your giants, let his story inspire you. The same God who helped him will help you.

Boy...how apt a timing for the arrival of this book. Somehow, I've been waiting for 'this book' for a long time...ever since I listened to Dennis Jernigan's 'Giant Killer: A Heart like David' cd album. (That's almost a 4 year wait!)
Hmm.I don't really mean it as, being so dependant on this particular book for things to work out. But rather more of, at this moment in time, after having walked and being in the midst of a particular season, it gives a whole new meaning to look back at it, for me.A seemingly subtle, yet purposeful timing.
Mmm...another book from Mr Lucado to wait out for.
