Saul dies, and some men risk their lives to rescue his body, showing that in Israel, Saul was probably viewed as a good king. We read all the stories of him turning his back on God and think of him as a rarf, but for your average man on the street at the time, who didn't have the insight we have from the Bible, he was probably a hero. Saul had approval from the people but missed the most important thing - God. How much of the time do I put people's approval ahead of my relationship with God. The position of my heart towards God is the most important thing.
