Our passage tells the famous story of David having the opportunity to kill King Saul in the cave but he chooses to spare his life. Indeed, Saul is delivered into “the hand of David” but David waits upon God to act in his behalf. The narrative invites us to reflect upon the question ”What is in our hand?” We also are given opportunities and capacities to know and serve God. May we recognize our chances to serve God and do so with grateful and trusting hearts.
