As we read the stories of the luminaries throughout the pages of the Bible, we can take some comfort that they, like us, were part of the weak or base of the world (I Corinthians 1:27-31). Moses, Joshua, Samuel, Job, and Elijah all had significant faults or "chinks in their armor." Perhaps the most enigmatic figure is David, whom God referred to as a man after His own heart (I Samuel 13:14; Acts 13:22) in that he was totally committed to God's ways, demonstrating fidelity to God's Law. Though he certainly broke all of God's Ten Commandments, he also repented continually, cognizant of the fear of losing God's Holy Spirit (Psalm 51). Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, David's grandson, was the only human who ever survived temptation without yielding to sin (Hebrews 4:15). God the Father chooses whomever He pleases, bringing us to His Son, our Savior Jesus Christ, to create in us a new heart—one that will be a heart after God's own heart.
