At some point during my childhood, I developed an addiction to approval that has carried over into adulthood. There was no pivotal moment. It was just a series of events throughout my life.

When you combine the promises of God and a deep sense of unfulfillment, I like to call it Holy frustration. I wonder if that is what David felt when he was anointed...
