Have you read 1 Samuel 30 before? That was the place in the Bible where David encouraged himself in the Lord. I have read it before, and I have heard sermons based on the scripture, and I know there's so much to learn there.
First of all, David encouraged himself in the Lord, then his men helped an Egyptian servant who led them to recover what they had lost. So many things to learn from David.

ut recently I considered the Egyptian slave, and how his predicament was the reason he was a blessing to David, and why the Bible has a record of him. This guy was sick, and had been left to die by those who were supposed to care for him, those to whom he had been a blessing or help. I'm sure he had lost hope for life when David's men found him.
Have you been left and considered useless? Are you in that season of your life when you think there's no hope left. Let this Egyptian slave encourage you from God's word; you can still be a blessing in your situation.
Consider that when Jesus was on the cross, it was a painful time for him, but he still reached out to the thief on his right.
Don't let your situation make you shut your bowel of mercy.
The people around you may not consider you as useful, you may have lost hope in yourself, but God still has need of you.
He's looking at you, and what He sees is a blessing
