Samuel
I wonder if there is "something in the air" about Samuel. Every corner I turn lately, people seem to be bringing Samuel and Eli etc into any spiritual/Biblical conversations! I am certain all these people are not attending BSF!!
I also found myself asking inwardly for a Bible story with meaning to tell my little son two weeks ago, and was given Samuel's story!
I found myself floundering after Eli died and need to get reading myself to keep ahead!!
My son and I discussed the fact that God spoke to Samuel, and Samuel didn't yet know Gods voice! It took a few times .... and that was ok. He told me of a couple of times he knew God spoke to him. I was amazed again at how the little children just believe. It is as we grow into adults with our beliefs and opinions etc setting hard, that we seem to be unable to see the simplicity of Christ. To my son, Jesus is so real. To my son, when Jesus speaks to him, he believes. No doubts. I can see why Jesus wants us to become as little children again!
