Today, our Bible story was about Samuel. He had a very important job from God. He was chosen to find a king. God led him to Jesse’s house. Jesse brought 7 of his sons before him but God said no. Finally, the little brother, David was brought before Samuel. God said “YES!”. Even though the other brothers were handsome and strong, God told Samuel “I look at the heart, not at the outside.”
Abram and Sarai headed to Egypt because there was a famine in the land. Abram fears that Pharoah will kill him and take his wife. Instead of trusting God’s protection, he devises a plan to pretend Sarai is his sister. We learned that total honesty and trust in God will keep us from greater trouble. We learned that telling lies may seem taking the easy route at the beginning but it always turns messy.
