This week's verse is longer, but so good to know. Note this is the (b) section of the verse. I want you to begin with the words "The Lord does not..." and go to the end. Someone asked last week why we only did a portion of some verses. That is because some are quite long. Anyone who wants to memorize the entire verse is certainly welcome to for extra credit! :)
1 Samuel 16:7(b) ...The Lord does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.
This takes place when the Lord sends Samuel to annoint Saul's replacement. Samuel is quite sure that (a) Saul will kill him and (b) the Lord will pick someone with an outstanding physical appearance. These words are the Lord talking to Samuel. First person to tell me how many of Jesse's sons Samuel saw before he annointed David will pick the next snack.
Jesse had 10 of his sons pass before Samuel before Samuel had Jesse call David from the fields.
