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 in the darkness, "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.
