Live it out ( Ephesians 2 v 10 )

Mary J. Evans writing about and how David acted toward King Saul,he would not harm him,even though the king  sought continually  to put David to death.David was tempted to kill king Saul,but did not yield to temptation. Mary writes the following,''Davids theology was,at least at his best times, not restricted to his poetry but was worked out in his life day by day.''  That is the challenge for all of us,it reminds us of what we are told in James 2 v 18, ''Show me your faith'', there must be from all of us the reality of our faith in our lives,or else our claim to be a Christian is fraudulent.Now I know that not one of us, is perfectly following the Lord, but we must  have that as our aim,if not we are fooling ourselves. Our Saviour challenged his listeners to believe  on the evidence of the miracles He had performed  (  John 14 v 11 ).So the challenge for us  is to be like David, to live out our theology in our lives day by day.
