Eli understood that the LORD was calling the boy. He told Samuel, "Go and lie down. If He calls you, say, ‘Speak, LORD, for Your servant is listening.’" 1 Samuel 3:8,9
When was the last time you heard God? Really heard Him? In Hearing God Through the Year, Dallas Willard writes “that the same Spirit who delivered the Scriptures to holy men of old speaks today in the hearts of those who gather around the written Word to teach and to learn.” Dr. Willard suggests that you list people you can talk to about how they hear God in their lives.
If we truly believe that God created us so that He could have a relationship with us, how then can we possibly think He would not want to speak to us? Who do you know that hears God on a regular basis? Consider treating them to a Starbucks and then listen to what they have to say!
