women of the Bible: Abigail

 women of the Bible: Abigail by ric gustafson


According to I Samuel 25, Abigail was married to Nabal. They were a spiritually incompatible couple. Abigail had faith. Nabal had no time for God. To the relationship, Abigail brought gifts and graces. 
One time, Nabal offended King David. Somebody reported it to Abigail. She prepared food for David's men and approached King David to make peace. Her intervention, humble words and attitude prevented bloodshed. After finding out what his wife did, Nabal had a fit and died.
Abigail eventually became King David's wife. Abigail had faith in God. Do we?.
God loves us more than anything else.
