Teaching Samuel hears the sheep Saul kept

God would rather have our obedience than any present - listening to Him all the way is the best gift we can give.

  • Saul obeyed the easy parts and skipped the hard part. Is "obeying most of the way" the same as obeying? Why or why not?
  • When Samuel asked about the noise, Saul made an excuse. Why is it tempting to make excuses when we've done something wrong?
  • What is one thing God (or your grown-up) has asked you to do that you can obey all the way this week?
