![]() When God told Samuel to anoint Saul as King, we find in 1 Samuel 10:23 that when Saul stood among the people, he was taller than any of the people from his shoulders upward. When you think about a king, you probably envision someone tall and strong. ![]() Saul had the outward appearance, but not the inward heart Maybe its someone you know who feels called but because you know them well and know what they’ve been through in the past you can’t believe God could ever use them. ![]() Maybe its yourself and you’ve felt God tugging on your heart to do something but because of something in your past, you’ve convinced yourself that God wouldn’t call you to do that task. It’s an inward matter of heart that God looks for. In this chapter of scripture we find that outward has nothing to do with it. Let me remind you about this story in 1 Samuel 16 where we find that outward appearances don’t matter at all because it’s the heart that God examines. When the person and the task doesn’t match, we instantly think the person can’t be called to that task. How many times do we have this certain “mold” or image of a person that God would call to a task and if the person doesn’t fit the mold, then certainly God didn’t call them? Likewise, we have certain tasks that we create in our minds a certain image about what that task looks like.
