We return this week to David and his predicament on the battlefield with King Achish and the Philistine army. He is delivered from that sticky situation, only to find himself in a greater dilemma when he returns home. It's there, fearful and greatly distressed, that we read, -But David strengthened himself in the Lord his God.- What comfort and strength it is to know the Lord is our God- to know he is with us and to know his promises to us in times of fear and great distress.
