Listen to God

In 1 Samuel 1 we see that the downcast Hannah loved God and, in His presence through prayer, went from great anguish and grief to joy even before she becomes pregnant with the child she vowed to give to God!  He remembered her and blessed her with a son and that event causes her to say in chapter 2  “My heart rejoices in the Lord!”  Samuel, God’s answer to Hannah’s prayer, is born to serve.  Our story for the kids takes place in chapter 3 when Samuel is about 12 and eager to obey!  That is why he listens, then hears, then responds to God’s voice.  Thank you for listening, hearing and responding to God’s call to serve in Eastview Kids!  We thank God often for you!:)
