Surprise
He’s bigger than me.
Much bigger.
He’s a better fighter too.
He’s had a zillion scraps and never lost.
Well, obviously, ‘cos he’s not dead.
All I have is the element of surprise.
And a wee bit rope.
And a stone.
I shout at him.
Hey, Goliath!
Yesss. David defeating Goliath will always be a classic. And it’s a template to defeating impossibilities in our lives.
Thank you!
Or it simply says that long shots win occasionally…
Armed with faith and some stones, David won the day. Fun retelling of a favorite.
Glad you enjoyed, NTW
An enjoyably pithy retelling, I like David’s attitude.
A wee guy with a rock is not to be messed with, Iain!
Dear CE,
And the rest is history. 😉 A good one.
Shalom,
Rochelle
If you say so, m’lady!
That element of surprise won the day, thank God! 😀
People rarely expect a half-brick between the eyes, Dora!
