God's Purpose For Himself

God's plan centers on relationship. We discover His plan for us in relationship with Him. But where do we start?

The prophet Samuel gives us a great example in 1 Samuel chapter 3. The first times God tried to speak to Samuel, he didn't recognize God's voice. He grew over time in how he listened to God. But later, Samuel learned to hear God speak. The Lord came and stood there, calling as at the other times, "Samuel! Samuel!" Then Samuel said, "Speak, for your servant is listening." And Samuel heard God's voice.
