Summary: <br> Today’s interlude is called “Speak to Me”. Â It was inspired by the story of young Samuel in 1 Samuel 3 of the Bible. Â In this story Samuel hears a voice calling his name but does not realize it’s the voice of God. Â He goes to his priest, Eli and says to him “here I am, you called me” and Eli has to tell him that he did not call him. Â After the third time Eli realized what was happening and suggested that young Samuel return to his rest and to listen for that voice. Â If the voice calls out to Samuel again he was told to respond “Speak, Lord for your servant is listening”.<br> I am quite confident that God’s voice is speaking to us many times and we do not recognize it. Â Perhaps it’s drowned out from all the noise of the world or perhaps we mistake it for something else.<br> My hope is that as you listen to this interlude that it will prepare you to be still and listen for that voice.<br>
