| The Irrepressible Faith of King David \ Trust and Tranquility
D'var Torah: King David met every challenge with the following immutable rule, "Even if the sword is laying on your neck, do not despair from praying to HaShem and asking Him for compassion." King David left us an invaluable legacy, a winning game-plan for life. That is, to always stay optimistic, have inner strength, and find success. When you have a financial crisis, an illness, or a broken relationship, etc., NEVER give up. Turn to HaShem for help. HaShem is waiting for our prayers and heartfelt supplications. In the blink of an eye, HaShem will turn our darkness to light and our sorrow to joy.
Moral: King David was resolute, and uncompromisingly hopeful in his absolute trust in HaShem, even in the most trying moments. His trust in HaShem was the secret of his incomparable greatness.
Application: Envision King David strengthening his faith in HaShem, even when the odds were against him. For instance, taking on Goliath. Follow King David's example and turn to HaShem when the chips are down. Be irrepressible and confident that HaShem will save you and convert your hardship into joy.
