1 Samuel 26:1-25. Although David had a prime opportunity for revenge against Saul, by faith in God he withstands the temptation. May we also develop convictions that help us withstand and endure in times of testing. 

1 Samuel 25.24-44. Abigail mediates between David, with his sword drawn in anger, and Nabal, her foolish, arrogant husband. Her words of wisdom, grace and humility are so instructive for us all in our own relationships. Several characteristics of wisdom are noted for our own learning and growth.
