It seems like it should be exciting  but then again  going into battle must be terribly frightening too.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eDavid glanced across the fire at his oldest brother  Eliab  who was sharpening his sword. Eliab looked like a soldier  with his armored leather vest and his spear stuck into the ground beside him. His jet black eyes looked stern  and his jaw muscles tightened as he gripped his sword in his strong  sinewy hand. As Eliab turned to leave  David jumped to his feet.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e?Eliab?? David grinned excitedly. He was almost afraid to ask the question. ?Do you think I could join the army sometime soon and fight with you and Abinadab and Shammah for the king??\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e?You?re not old enough to fight  anyway  so you can get that notion out of your head! When you?re a grown man  then you can sign up... And besides  if you leave  who will watch the sheep??\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs far as important jobs go  being a shepherd was just about the bottom of the heap. Most people hated the idea of being a shepherd. The sheep were smelly and stupid and totally unpredictable. But to forsake them? Never. David would rather spend endless days and cold nights caring for the sheep than risk the life of even one sheep.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCome along! The journey is just beginning for the shepherd warrior.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAges: 10-14\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pacific Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41313712078899,"sku":"9780816321612","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0103\/8902\/8915\/files\/shepherd_warrior_81310eb9-41ef-47b8-b565-c70732de6f81.jpg?v=1774920982","url":"https:\/\/clovisabc.com\/products\/shepherd-warrior","provider":"ClovisABC.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
