70. He chose David also his servant. It was
an election of a sovereignly gracious kind, and it operated practically by
making the chosen man a willing servant of the Lord. He was not chosen because
he was a servant, but in order that he might be so. And took him from the sheepfolds. A shepherd of sheep he had been, and this was a fit school for
a shepherd of men. Lowliness of occupation will debar no one from such honors
as the Lord’s election confers.
