Are You Failing to Reach Your Potential (1 Samuel 13: 1-15)

If you had met him, you would be impressed. 

 For one thing, he was tall, head and shoulders above the average person. Then the fact was that he was good-looking.  

But he had other attributes as well. He was a hard worker. There are some indications that he was humble as well. And then there is no doubt that the hand of God was upon him. This is a fella that had great potential.  He had everything going for him physically and apparently spiritually as well. But he did not live up to his potential. It's tragic. With all these possibilities, he just didn't live up to what he could have been. 

 I'm talking, of course, about someone we have already met. I'm talking about King Saul in the Old Testament. He had the potential to be a leader, a great leader. But unfortunately, he never realized his full potential. 

So, what happened? What went wrong in his life? Well, we're told that in this chapter.
