well-sculpted face, attractive curly black locks, toned arms despite the petite figure, and a harp in hand; those are merely my initial imagery of david in my head.
the story of shepherd-turned-king david has always enchant me.
he was underestimated, youngest of the eight sons of jesse that his father even hardly noticed. despite the hard fact, though, in the end he was the one the prophet samuel anointed as king, and he was also the one who defeated the mighty goliath with no credible weaponry. not to mention that he was also described as "an excellent musician" according to the message translation. he excelled in playing harp, to be exact. scan through the chapters in psalm, you'd also get that he was also a great singer/ songwriter.
