Hearing God’s Call

 

The story of Samuel comforts me. Like young Samuel, I’ve been known to miss God’s call.

 


1 Samuel 3:4-5 (ESV)

Then the Lord called Samuel, and he said, “Here I am!” and ran to Eli and said, “Here I am, for you called me.” But he said, “I did not call; lie down again.” So he went and lay down.

Fortunately, God willingly repeats the call … for Samuel and for me.

Lord, teach me to hear–and obey–you the first time. But I’m grateful for second changes.
