No you were a good leader. You did not hurt, steal nor cheat.
What about me?Have I ever cheated or hurt you?Did I steal from you?
The people of Israel had saw that other nations had Kings and they came to Samuel to ask him to ask God for a King. So Samuel spoke with God.
God saved you, again and again and again
I sent Moses and Aaron to lead them out of Egypt
When you worshipped idols and Sisera took you captive.
God told Samuel to listen to the people and told him to choose Saul as their first King.
I will pray to God for thunder and rain
Save us!
Samuel questioned the people to see if he had done something wrong. And they said no.
Don't be afraid.God has made you his own.
Samuel reminded the people of all the things God had done for their ancestors.
Samuel then called down a thunderstorm from the sky to show the people that asking for a King was a wicked thing. The people begged him to stop the thunderstorm.
The people cried to Samuel to save them from the storm. And then He said, "For the sake of his great name the Lord . . was pleased to make you his own"
