1 Samuel 25

We all have a button that can be pushed...a switch that can be flipped that will send our composure into a tailspin and very often it’s the little things that send us over the edge. We steel ourselves against losing our composure over a big thing only to lose our composure over a little thing. Many times we gain victory over the major complications in life to come totally undone by minor irritations. In 1st Samuel 24, David partially overcame his desire to avenge himself against Saul. David did not exactly pass that test with flying colors, but he passed it. Today he faces a similar test of a lesser magnitude, which he fails, yet he is prevented from carrying out his evil desire by the brains and beauty of a woman named Abigail.
