1 Samuel 24:12 "The LORD judge between me and thee, and the LORD avenge me of thee: but mine hand shall not be upon thee."
"You can't get something a man has without loving him" - Pastor David Ibieyomie
One thing I had to consciously train myself growing up in much later years of my Faith is focusing on the good things done by men and learning from those. Any gift you covet, must attract your loving the carrier, be it in ministry, sports, education, etc. There's no doubt that yes, sometimes people make mistakes, some times even often that not, these mistakes are glaring, but it's the gift you desire not the mistake, you learn on the gift, take a cue from their mistakes made but you must love them. I strongly believe that if David had harmed Saul while he saw him at the cave sleeping even though he was anointed, he wouldn't have become King or even been a good King, need be say, the anointing upon him(David) made him do the right thing as such. David showed that no matter how grave a man's mistakes are, if you covet a gift or position they carry, you must love them. How can you want to be an Actor or an Actress, and you lambast or criticize almost every Actor? No!. One of the signs you're on achieving your career path is celebrating those who have gone ahead of you. Don't spend time talking about people's mistakes. Do have a great Sunday ahead.
