But
David went back and forth from Saul to feed his father’s sheep at Bethlehem
David, secretly anointed to
succeed Saul, cannot claim his destiny until Saul dies. Here we see his somewhat
mundane existence, still tending his family’s sheep while making music for the
soul of the troubled king, Saul. It is a picture of patience and duty that we
might have missed.
“Back and forth” indicates
tedium. Does that apply to anything in our lives?
