Jesse had seven of his sons pass before Samuel, but Samuel said to him, “The Lord has not chosen these.” So he asked Jesse, “Are these all the sons you have?”
      “There is still the youngest,” Jesse answered. “He is tending the sheep.”
      Samuel said, “Send for him; we will not sit down until he arrives.”
      So he sent for him and had him brought in. He was glowing with health and had a fine appearance and handsome features.
      Then the Lord said, “Rise and anoint him; this is the one.”
      So Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the presence of his brothers, and from that day on the Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon David. Samuel then went to Ramah.

      You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you.
