June 8–14: “Jehovah Looks at the Heart” 1 Samuel 8–10; 13; 15–16 Saul tended donkeys. Although tall and handsome, he was “small in [his] own eyes” and felt self-conscious about his family circumstances (see 1 Samuel 9:2–3, 21; 15:17). On the day he was to be presented to Israel as their king, he did not appear; he was so nervous that he “was hiding” (1 Samuel 10:21–22). Looking at Saul, you might not have thought that he would lead the Israelites to victory over their enemies, or that he would later become proud and rebel against Jehovah. David was a shepherd. He did not stand out physically like his seven older brothers. The day Samuel came to choose a new king for Israel, David didn't seem worth including among the possible candidates, so they left him in the field with the sheep. Looking at David, you might not have imagined that he would have the faith and courage to defeat a giant and become the most successful king Israel ever had. But the Lord sees beyond our labels, our physical appearance, and our insecurities. He, rather, “looks at the heart” (1 Samuel 16:7). And even when our heart isn't quite right, if we are willing, He will “change our hearts” (1 Samuel 10:9). ___________________ On this channel, we study the Scriptures with a Jesus Christ-centered approach.
