Thursday the 11th: The Shepherd-King

 Samuel was a prophet who witnessed to the evolution of Israel into a nation ruled by a king. The first king was Saul, but the greatest king was his successor, David. David was the youngest son of Jesse and until anointed by the Holy Spirit a simple shepherd boy. Samuel was called to recognize David's true calling and anoint him to lead Israel. David himself, like Saul, fell short of his true dignity but was able to repent fully before God for his sins.
