Samuel’s response to God’s voice is not to be underestimated. At first, young Samuel struggled to realize that what he was hearing wasn’t simply the voice of Eli. And today, you may well wonder if what you’re hearing is the voice of God, our own thoughts echoing in our head, or simply some words the preacher is spouting off on a Sunday morning? How do you and I recognize the voice of God?
