Tonight, we learned about the book of 1 Samuel in the Bible. This book starts out with the life of Samuel but mainly focuses on the life of David. David was chosen by God to be king over Isreal because he had a heart for Him. As God was instructing Samuel who would be the next king, each one of Jesse's sons walked before him. As he saw each one taller and stronger than the next he was sure that God had chosen that one to be king, but it was the youngest and least likely in appearance to be chosen. "But the LORD said to Samuel, "Do not look on his appearance or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him. For the LORD sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the LORD looks on the heart." 1 Samuel 16:7
We ended the evening with walk to the local gas station for a treat.
As usual, a fun time was had by all.
