David and one of his men hiding in the back of a cave as King Saul walks out. David gestures to the man, who is holding a sword, not to kill Saul.

TREASURES FROM GOD’S WORD

Wait Patiently on Jehovah

David had an opportunity to end his trial (1Sa 24:3-5)

David viewed his situation from Jehovah’s standpoint and exercised restraint (1Sa 24:6, 7)

David had faith that Jehovah would resolve matters (1Sa 24:12, 15; w04 4/1 16 ¶8)

Like David, we should wait patiently on Jehovah instead of using unscriptural means to end trials.​—Jas 1:4; w04 6/1 22-23.
