DAILY?READINGS: Judges 5; Isaiah 26; 1 Corinthians 5
And (Jesse) said, There remaineth yet the youngest, and, behold, he keepeth the sheep. 1 Samuel 16:11
He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much.
Luke 16:10
Jesse considered David to be too young even to be present when Samuel came to anoint a new king. But God thought otherwise. He saw David faithfully keeping the sheep while others enjoyed the ceremony. He saw a young man who was “faithful in little things.” Thus he could be depended upon to be faithful in bigger things—ruling the nation! Young believer, be faithful in each small task assigned to you and God will entrust you with much greater responsibilities. —David Croudace
Just as I am, young, strong and free, to be the best that I can be,
For truth and righteousness and Thee, Lord of my life, I come, I come.
