SF - The Power of Trust

On one fateful occasion, King David led the men of the city, Ziklag, to battle the Philistines. Upon their return, they saw smoke rising from Ziklag. They soon realized that in their absence, the Amalekites had attacked their city. They captured the women and children, including David's two wives, and burned the city to the ground. King David and his men fell to the ground and cried until they had no more strength to cry. Despite the unspeakable pain of this great tragedy, King David mustered his resolve by putting his trust in HaShem, as per the verse, "David strengthened his trust in HaShem." He picked himself off the ground, rallied his troops to thrash Amalek, and recover all of the women and children.

If we strengthen our trust in HaShem, there is hope even in the most seemingly desperate situation.

Resolve to strengthen your full trust in HaShem, even in the most challenging crisis. Be confident He will help you to always overcome, flourish, and succeed!

(Based on the commentary of the Metzudas Dovid to Shmuel A 30)
