7:00 am @ Your School Flagpole
...see you there!
See You at the Pole™ is a student-initiated,
student-led event, for students to meet at their
school flagpole to pray— for their school,
friends, teachers, government, and their nation!
While the prophet Samuel was young, he lived in the Temple under the spiritual guidance of Eli. One night God called Samuel’s name, but he thought it was Eli. After this happened several times, Eli realized the truth and told Samuel to go back to bed and if he heard the voice again to respond by saying… “Speak, Lord,for your servant is listening!” 1 Samuel 3:9b
God did call and Samuel listened. This began a relationship with God that went on throughout Samuel’s life. In fact, in verse 19, it says, “The Lord was with Samuel as he grew up, and he let none of his [God’s] words fall to the ground.”
At another point as Samuel was an old man, he addressed Israel: “I have been your leader from my youth until this day. Here I stand.” The people agreed that Samuel had led them with integrity and honor all his years, but it began when he was young.
