LOL However, I would add the Goliath in the sense you are talking about is less Satan and more SELF? Sure Satan has the key and drives the distractions, if we can but die to self, and follow Jesus? Too many in the church are Christians who have yet to die for self and live their lives for themsleves. Just think, if we could get the church to forget self and follow Jesus with showing love to our community, how much of an impact that would have. Dying to self is a journey, I for one, am on it!

Great philosophy, the proof is in the outcome of what is achievable with determination and innovation!
