Samuel was a young boy who served God in the temple under
the direction of Eli, an aging priest.
One night Samuel heard a voice call him by name, "Samuel! Samuel!" and he said, "Here I
am!" and rushed to see what Eli wanted. But Eli had not called him. This happened three times. "Then Eli perceived that the Lord was calling the
boy," so he told him next time to answer, "Speak, Lord, for your
servant is listening." And
the next time Samuel heard his name called in the night, he answered to God,
and was given a vision of the future.
