to kill thee . . .” (1 Sam. 19:1, 2). Repeatedly Saul made attempts to take David’s life. We will let these scissors remind us of the ways in which Saul tried to kill David. (Cut around the middle of each piece of paper.) Look, the links are longer and are now linked together by a double link. This was the way with Jonathan and David. Whenever something came into their lives which could have sepa rated them had it not been for their great love, they were more tightly bound to each other.

(Tie the rubber heart on one prong of the magnet. The tin heart will stick to the other prong.) LESSON: This is a strange looking magnet, isn’t it? Its two hearts repre sent two kinds of people. Most people are very selfish. Notice how this bright tin heart grabs everything it can. (Hold it near the nails.) The other heart is different. It has the drawing power of the magnet back of it but does not use the strength of the magnet to take that which does not belong to it. The nails are not grabbed by this heart. As I look at it, I am reminded of

David. He had been anointed king of Israel but he would not take the kingdom until God was ready for him to have it. David could have killed Saul and the kingdom would have been his but he would not allow himself to be controlled by selfishness. This is one of the great differences between Saul and David. Saul on many occasions tried to kill David. When David had an opportunity to kill Saul, he was not selfish enough to do it. He would never have been called a man after God’s own heart (1 Sam. 13:14) if he had been selfish like Saul. The person who is unselfish and who waits for God’s time for special blessings will never be disappointed. David received the throne when
