11 When You're Just Too Tired - Facing Your Giants (MP3)

Listen to a Sample

The other day I saw a woman pulling a dog with a leash. The day was hot, brutally. The dog had stopped, totally. He'd plopped, belly-down, in wet grass, exchanging a blistering street for a cool lawn. We know the feeling. We've reached the "plopping point" ourselves. Unlike the dog, however, we don't flop in the grass. We plop down into enemy territory. We compromise convictions, hurt innocent people, and end up disappointing the ones we love. At least, that's what David did. The demands of leadership left him so worn out that he got out of God's will. He sold out his convictions until he lost out on his joy, his followers and friends. When you're just too tired, learn a lesson from David's demise.
