FAMILY PLUS Preschool - August 13

Do you ever wonder about how God sees you?  This weeks story tell us how important it is for us to use our gifts that God has given us. In 1 Samuel 16:1-23 God saw something in David that no one else could see. David used his gifts to help his family and others. God uses ordinary men and women to accomplish God's work in the world. Ask God to help you see yourself as He sees you.

Every age group's story is the same this week. I simplified them for you.

1's and 2's

Your preschooler can help others just as David did. Let them know when we help others, we choose to do what is right. Help your preschooler think of ways they can make right choices to help others.

Bible Story: David Helped 1 Samuel 16:1-23

David had an important job. He helped take care of his family's sheep.  Every day David watched over the sheep to make sure they were safe.

While David watched the sheep, he played the harp. What beautiful music David made!

One day a helper from the king's house asked David to play the harp for the king. The king was sad, and the music would help him feel better. David wanted to help, so he played music for the king. The king began to feel better!

David did many things to help.

Bible Story: David Helped 1 Samuel 16:1-23
David lived with his father and seven brothers. He helped his family by taking care of the sheep. David gave them food to eat and water to drink. He kept the sheep safe from wild animals. Sometimes when David watched the sheep, he played his harp. David liked to make music on his harp and sing songs to God.

One day King Saul was feeling sad. His helpers said that listening to harp music would make him feel better. "Find someone who plays the harp. Bring him to me," said King Saul.

One of the helpers told the king about David. King Saul sent some men to talk to David's father. They told David's father that King Saul needed David to come to his house. The king wanted David to play beautiful music to help him feel better.

So David took his harp and went to the king's house. When David began playing beautiful music on his harp, the king felt better. David stayed with King Saul and played music on the harp whenever the king felt sad.

 Bible Truth: I can help.

 

Bible Verse: God wants us to help people. Deuteronomy 15:11
