It was the Russian writer, Leo Tolstoy, who said, “Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.” In some ways, it might be much easier to change the world than ourselves. We’ve been this way for so long, changing ourselves seems almost impossible, especially when it involves dying to self. Of course, we are helpless to bring about true change until God’s grace transforms us and we are born again. Once that happens however, every day becomes an opportunity to become conformed to the image of His Son. And by changing us - He changes the world.
The changes that happen within the human heart are important for all of us-it is especially important for those in positions of leadership. As we jump back into the OT Book 1 Samuel, we find Israel’s first king needing a heart change-a transformation of character critical for Israel’s growth and health in the days to come.
The events surrounding Saul’s appointment to the kingship of Israel provide important insights related to internal heart change and following Jesus today.
