"And it came to pass at that time...while Samuel was lying down, that the LORD called Samuel. And he answered, 'Here I am!' ....And the LORD called Samuel again the third time...Then Eli perceived that the LORD had called the boy."
I Samuel 3:2, 3b, 4, 8
I truly identify with Samuel and Eli's confusion. I confess that I, too, have had trouble discerning God's call at times as evidenced by all the dead-ends in my life. I have tried to be sensitive and respond to what I thought was God call. I am not always sure whether it is my own imagination, my personal desire, someone else calling me, or truly the Lord. Regardless of all of that, I want to remain sensitive and ready to respond to God's voice, even if at times I misunderstand. I would rather make mistakes than miss His call.
Today's Thought: We do not always recognize God's voice.
Have a listening day. Love you.
