A Man After God's Own Heart - The Song

So, if you missed us this week - here's what happened:
We created a picture time line of events in David's life.
Then before our monthly trivia game, we wrote a little rock song!
Here are the lyrics:

David was a God-fearing man
David had a God-given plan
to defeat the Philistines
and a giant named Goliath who was really mean
And all David had was a rock and a sling.

* And so we sing
a song about David who would be king.
David trusted God from the very start
He was a man after God's own heart.

David was pursued by Saul
who wanted him dead, and that's not all.
David had a chance to kill the king.
Saul went to the bathroom. That was David's opening.
But only Saul's robe was cut.
Only Saul's robe was cut. *

David's Dancing

We drew a comic strip about David dancing for God. He was king, but he knew that God was his king. We do things to worship God, even though it might look silly to other people.

Check out last week's review!

1) David's Anointing - Even though David was the youngest, Samuel
anointed him to be King one day.
2) David and Goliath - God prepared David to accomplish great things.
David defended God's honor by having courage.
3) David Spares Saul - On the toilet in a cave, David cuts off part
of Saul's robe. God's spirit led David.

Measured and Weighed

Goliath's Challenge: Goliath had been fighting ever since he was a
boy. He dared the Israelites to fight.
But Israel's whole army, even David's 3 oldest brothers, were chicken
(filled with fear/terrified).

David's Confidence: David's family were known to be the best sling-
shotters. David had been trained. He had killed a lion and bear.
David was the youngest, but the bravest.

David's Clothes: Try to run in clothes that are much too large.
It's difficult and really funny! Even though Goliath was covered in
armor (which weighed more than one of us), David didn't take any
extra armor.

David's Challenge:
He fought against Goliath so that the whole world would know that
there was a God in Israel.

We have big problems that make us feel small. But God is bigger than
them all.

A Closer Look at Christmas: Joseph

Here's a little about what we learned last Sunday:
(Though, I think it was more fun in person because we had games and activities for different parts...)
- Joseph was patient. He had to knock on all those doors in order to find a place to stay!
- Joseph made good choices, even though they were hard and sometimes embarrassing.
- Joseph had a unique family. He was related to King David.
- Joseph was a hard worker - he was a carpenter and that's hard work!
- Joseph followed God's instructions and was kept safe.
