Petru Munteanu

Today at the service I heard the tropes for the prophet Samuel. I remembered how he anointed David when he was a child; like me in football with the boys, you never know who God chooses to be "captain". Good day everyone.

Simona Ciobanu

Yes, those tropes from Samuel are beautiful. I also liked the part with the anointed David the youngest, as if he was some kid among his older brothers. Like Peter says, you never know who God chooses. A peaceful day to you too.

Alexandru Matei

Yes, those anointed David tropes are simple and beautiful. I remember how God chose the smallest one, exactly as you say, as if he were some boy with the sheep. Thank you, Simona, have a nice day to you too.
