Devotion on Relationship with God, 1 Samuel 3:4–5. 2 pages.

Then the LORD called Samuel, and he said, β€œHere I am!” and ran to Eli and said, β€œHere I am, for you called me.” But he said, β€œI did not call; lie down again.” So he went and lay down (1 Samuel 3:4–5).

Samuel was called by the Lord when he was only a lad, but he did not recognize who was calling him. He had not built a personal relationship with God and did not recognize His voice when the Lord called.

Did God ever call you? What did it sound like? The women in my weekly Bible study hypothesized if Jesus would ever call us on a cell phone, we might not answer. Often, the only numbers we answer are those from people we know.
