True Beauty Begins In The Heart - A Devotional For Teenage GirlsSample

Respect

Know anyone who lacks common sense? Nabal falls in that category. In fact, his name even means “fool,” and he sure lived up to it. After refusing to give supplies to David and David’s men—men who protected his property—Nabal earned himself a death sentence by mouthing off to David’s messengers. Not smart. Lucky for Nabal, his wife Abigail smoothed things over. Smart.

When you’re under pressure, do you stay calm and act wisely like Abigail or lash out and make new enemies like Nabal?
