Therefore, Saul sent messengers to Jesse, and said, “Send me your son David, who is with the sheep.”
1 Samuel 16:19
After David was anointed to be the next king of Israel, he didn’t go to the palace. He went back to caring for his father’s sheep. He was anointed before he was appointed.

How you respond when you’re anointed but not appointed will determine whether you make it to the palace. You have to be your best right where you are. When you pass the test of being faithful in the small, get ready for opportunities that come looking for you.
