We are called to cultivate unwavering confidence in God, trusting that He will complete His good work. This confidence is refined through trials that produce maturity.

God is absolutely faithful to finish what He started, knowing the end from the beginning. Our strength is dependent upon the relationship we have with God.

God chose both Saul and David, the first complying with the people's choice (judging by outward appearance and stature), the second by judging inwardly.

Exploring whether we follow our faith because of conviction or convenience is an essential question we should ask when we seek to determine what motivates us.
