As we grow to understand what covenant means, losing ourselves and becoming one with another, we should begin to see scripture differently. Perhaps the giants are not to be viewed as obstacles to a "better" life, but rather opportunities to show others the difference walking in the covenant can make in our lives. Just as David beat Goliath because he realized and then lived out his covenant relationship with God, we too can have the confidence to face whatever is before us. The battle is the Lord's!
