The story of David and Goliath, found in 1 Sam 17, is an account that holds profound object lessons for us in facing our own giants and overcoming life's challenges with faith. David's choice of five smooth stones and a sling, to face up to the behemoth of the Philistine Army, Goliath, may have seemed unconventional, but it symbolizes the importance of using the unique gifts and methods God has given us. Sometimes, overcoming the giants in our own lives requires a step of faith that defies conventional wisdom.
