Have you ever felt like God was distant—even silent? In 1 Samuel 16, Saul’s disobedience leads to the Spirit of the Lord departing from him, leaving a void filled with torment. It’s a moment that reminds us how crucial God’s presence is in our lives. But amid Saul’s agony, a young shepherd named David enters with a harp, and something unexpected happens: peace, not because of David’s skill alone, but because God used him to bring calm where there was chaos. We too face moments of inner unrest. When fear, regret, or spiritual dryness sets in, God often sends help surprisingly—through people, music, Scripture, or even silence that calls us back. Are you willing to let God interrupt your pain with His peace? Today, open your heart again. Let go of control. Ask God to restore your joy and fill you with His Spirit.
