There are days that you find you self in a conundrum. We may think that we have the answers but in the end we in ourselves do not have the answer. I think of Samuel when he was a young lad and was hearing something, and he was told to reply:
1 Samuel 3:
1. Now the boy Samuel was ministering to the LORD before Eli And word from the LORD was rare in those days, visions were infrequent.
2. It happened at that time as Eli was lying down in his place (now his eyesight had begun to grow dim and he could not see well),
3. and the lamp of God had not yet gone out, and Samuel was lying down in the temple of the LORD where the ark of God was,
4. that the LORD called Samuel; and he said, "Here I am."
5. Then he ran to Eli and said, "Here I am, for you called me." But he said, "I did not call, lie down again." So he went and lay down.
6. The LORD called yet again, "Samuel!" So Samuel arose and went to Eli and said, "Here I am, for you called me." But he answered, "I did not call, my son, lie down again."
7. Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD, nor had the word of the LORD yet been revealed to him. 8So the LORD called Samuel again for the third time. And he arose and went to Eli and said, "Here I am, for you called me." Then Eli discerned that the LORD was calling the boy.
9. And Eli said to Samuel, "Go lie down, and it shall be if He calls you, that you shall say, 'Speak, LORD, for Your servant is listening.'" So Samuel went and lay down in his place.
10. Then the LORD came and stood and called as at other times, "Samuel! Samuel!" And Samuel said, "Speak, for Your servant is listening."
11. The LORD said to Samuel, "Behold, I am about to do a thing in Israel at which both ears of everyone who hears it will tingle.
If when hear that voice do you reply the same way. It is so easy to get distracted in life we may not think we have a way back. But we certainly do. Remember that Jesus is the same yesterday today and forever, and n matter what you think or have been told Jesus is always there for you and for me. We just need to reply and say Speak Lord for your Servant is listening.
God Bless you today.
