1. Split into two teams and stand facing each other, forming two lines about 10 meters apart.
2. Place an item (the “rock”) in the center between the two teams. This could be a ball, a cone, or any small object.
3. Assign a number to each player on one team and have their counterpart on the other team stand directly across from them.
4. The game leader will call out a number. The players with that number from each team run to the center, grab the ‘bacon,’ and try to return to their side without being tagged by the opponent.
5. If a player gets tagged before reaching their side, the opposing team earns a point.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all numbers have been called.
7. Round 2. Boys and girls in round two there is a “guard” by the Rock. If the guard tags you, you are out.
8. Round 3. This time there is a helper that can “freeze the guard” you can go and grab the rock without fear. 

THE CIRCUMSTANCE 
Long ago in the times of Kings and Queens, in the land of Israel, nestled among hills and valleys, lay the town of Bethlehem. In this town lived a young boy named David, who was led by God to shape the future of an entire nation.

THE CHOICE (1 Samuel 16:7, 12-13) (Children, when I say Lion roar like a lion, when Isay lamb baa like a lamb. When I cross my hands stop, Roaring and Baa- Baa)Samuel, a prophet who knew God’s voice, heard the Lord speak. “How long will you grieve over Saul?” the Lord’s voice echoed in Samuel’s soul. “I have rejected him as king. Fill your horn with oil and journey to Jesse the Bethlehemite. (A person that lived near or in the city of Bethlehem) There, I have chosen a king among his sons.” (1Samuel 16:1) With some worry Samuel obeyed, bringing an offering of sacrifice. But fear clung to him like a shadow. “How can I go? If Saul hears, he will kill me,” he thought. The Lord, in His wisdom, instructed Samuel to bring a heifer and speak of a sacrifice.  Samuel’s faith became stronger as he chose to obey God and set out on this divine mission. Samuel’s presence stirred the elders in Bethlehem, and they trembled.“Do you come peaceably?” they asked. “Samuel replied peaceably”. Then Samuelsanctified Jesse and his sons. A sense of hope filled the air, for they sensed the divine purpose behind Samuel’s visit. As Jesse’s sons passed before Samuel, his eyes were drawn to Eliab, strong and noble. But the Lord’s voice resounded, “Do not look on his appearance or stature. I have rejected him. The Lord sees the heart, not outward appearances.” Each son, Abinadab, Shammah, and seven more passed in succession, but the Lord had not chosen them. Samuel questioned, “Are all your sons here?” Jesse hesitated, then spoke of the youngest, David, tending sheep (Baa, Baa, cross hands to stop.). “Send for him,” Samuel declared, refusing to rest until he arrived. When David
stood before Samuel, his youth and innocence shone. The Lord’s voice declared,“Arise, anoint him, for this is he.” Samuel poured oil on David’s head, anointing him as future king. From that moment, the Spirit of the Lord rushed upon David, guiding his steps. David later told Saul (1 Samuel 17:34-35) “Your servant has been keeping his father’s sheep. When a lion(roar, cross hands to stop.) or a bear came and carried off a sheep(Baa, Baa, cross hands to stop.) from the flock, then I went after it, struck it and rescued the sheep (Baa, Baa, cross hands to stop) from its mouth. When it turned on me, I seized it by its hair, struck it, and killed it.

THE CONSEQUENCE 
In the depths of a humble shepherd’s heart, an amazing truth ignited—a truth that would become a beacon of light through trials and triumphs. David’s anointing marked the beginning of a journey, a journey filled with both challenges and victories. As days turned into years, David’s heart remained steadfast. His love for God grew, shaping his attitude and desires. When faced with adversity, he remembered the One Main Truth—an eternal presence in his actions. In the fields, he wrote many psalms of hope, faith, and joy, reflecting his deep connection with the Almighty. The consequence of David’s anointing was not only a crown but a heart in line with God’s purpose. His path was filled with battles and trials, yet he held onto the truth that he was chosen by God. David’s reign was marked by victories and challenges, yet through it all, he clung to the truth that God’s presence shaped his choices. His heart’s melody rang with love, hope, and faith that inspired generations to come. Later in (Psalm 78:70-72) God’s wisdom in choosing David is made clear, “” He chose David his servant and took him from the sheepfolds; from following the nursing lamb she brought him to shepherd Jacob his people, Israel his inheritance. With upright heart, he shepherded them and guided them with his skillful hand.” These passages highlight David’s bravery and his dedication to protecting his sheep, which fully prepared him for his future role as the greatest King of Israel.”

THE LIFE LESSON
In the echoing chambers of history, the story of David reminds us that a heart aligned with God’s purpose can overcome any obstacle. His journey from shepherd to king is a testament to the One Main Truth, a truth that invites us to anchor our hearts, minds, souls, and strength in God’s unchanging love.
