In today's lesson we learn about ...
David Spares Saul’s Life --- 1 Samuel 24

Next, we look at 1 Samuel 24 at a crucial moment in David’s life. He’s been anointed as the next king of Israel, but King Saul is still around, and he’s out to get David. As David is on the run from King Saul, he discovers the perfect opportunity to take out King Saul and be done with their feud.
David paused and realized that taking matters into his own hands was not what God wanted for him. He didn’t let anger control his actions.

Our Bottom Line This Week Is: ... “Don’t Be Controlled By Your Anger.”

Anger is a natural response to difficult situations. How we handle that anger is essential. As we learn to trust God no matter what, we discover how we can control our anger and not let it get the better of us.
God can give us what we need to find ways to think and calm down before making an unwise decision that hurts others or ourselves.

Our Memory Verse This Month Is: ... "God’s Power Has Given Us Everything We Need To Lead A Godly Life." 2 Peter 1:3A , NIRV

Remember that Self-Control is: Choosing To Do What You Should Even When You Don’t Want To.
