I love that David was so panicked he literally drooled on himself As I wrap up a completely exhausting. stressful week, I found myself reading 1 Samuel 21. And honestly, it made me feel so much better about my own anxiety. David, the legendary giant-slayer, the man after God's own heart, was running for his life. He got so terrified of an enemy king that he suffered a complete psychological breakdown (or faked one) He started scratching on doors and letting spit run down his beard just so they would think he was a madman and let him go It is the most undignified, humiliating moment of his life. Yet, God didn't abandon him for lacking faith. God used that exact messy, desperate moment to save him.When our anxiety strips away all our dignity, God doesn't demand we pull ourselves together. He protects us even in our most embarrassing moments of panic. #AnxietyRelief #KingDavid #GodsGrace #MentalHealth #ChristianLife
