Most parents want to protect their children from the harsher realities of life. Hannah and Elkanah would have felt the same about their son, Samuel, yet they surrendered him over and trusted that God would do great things through Him. God gave us that desire to protect our children from things that would harm them and itt’s not a bad thing, but at times, we might shelter them to a dangerous extreme. As Pastor Mark explains in today’s message, God used Samuel, young though he was, to deliver a strong message. God is not limited by age or status; He’ll use even the weakest amongst us to administer His will.
