Samuel (Thinking Inside the Quarantine #31)

Samuel’s growing up at the tabernacle has to be one of the most unusual childhood stories in the Bible! It is imposible to consider the facts without realizing the intense emotion that had to fill the hearts of both mother and son, as they looked forward each year to the one time they could be together. And yet, as high as the probabilities of failure might have been, with a young boy living amongst corrupt religious leaders, God’s grace turned him into a spiritual giant. (WT48)
