David’s Courage Against Goliath

The biggest battles in life are not won by the strongest or the tallest, but by those who

refuse to back down. In ancient Israel, a giant named Goliath stood over nine feet tall,

challenging the entire army daily. Every soldier trembled in fear. No one would face

him. Then a young shepherd boy named David arrived to bring food to his brothers.

When he heard Goliath mocking his people, David volunteered to fight. The king offered

him armor, but David refused. He walked onto the battlefield with only a sling and

five smooth stones. Goliath laughed at the boy approaching him. David loaded his

sling, aimed carefully, and released. The stone flew straight into Goliath's forehead.
