False Modesty=Lack of Faith?!

1 Samuel 9,10~

This is the beginning of the story of Saul-
a man I often wonder about.
Surely there isn't much about him to admire
except maybe the fact that he
kept silent in the face of his detractors

His father was a mighty man of valor.
Saul also was concerned for his father's
concern for him,
when the search for the donkeys
took longer than expected.
That is also a good quality.

But his reticence
in making known his call to kingship
is questionable.

If God calls,
isn't it false modesty
and lack of faith in God's enabling power
that keeps us from accepting that calling?!
