I. Samuel Given to the Lord (1:24-
28). - -
Samuel was given to Hannah in
answer to prayer. His name means
“asked of God.” For a time he was
cared for by his mother in the home.
In asking God for a son she vowed
to dedicate him to the Lord. Accords
ingly at ap early age she took him to
the sanctuary and gave him over to
the charge of Eli. Thus in his tender
years he ministered tq;§he Lord.
. Featurec;'rf Icrv)’n History in
This Period. i\
1. A demordhzed priesthood. (1)
The priests were actidted by greed
{2:12-17). It.,was ego‘j’s will that
those who ministered-’at the altar
should live of the thitigs of the aitar,
but they broke through the divine regs
ulations touchink this matter and
were securing their selfish ends by
force, (2) The priests polluted the
courts of God’s house with the gross
est immorality (2:22). |
2. An alienated people. The only
thing which separates people from
God is sin. PE 3
3. A cessation of divine revelation.
(3:1). God was silente~*"The word of
God was precious in those days; there
Was no open vision.” The message
from the Lord was more a matter of
memory than an active experience,
The same thing in principle is frue of
the individual life today; some who
once enjoyed fellowship with God no
longer hear his voice spdaking tq them.
Hl. God Calls Samuel (3:2-10). |
In striking contrast with the degen-}
eracy of the nation we have brought
before us the beautiful life of Samuel.‘
We see God getting ready for the re
generation of the nation. Dwelllng!
within the sacred courts and minister.
ing before the Lord with Eli, is the
inunocent Samuel, who is to be the
savior of his people. lan Samuel we
have a striking pattern of child re
ligion. The Lord gave him in answer
to Hannah’s prayer. From his birth
he was dedicated to the Lord. Whtle
quite young his mother took him to
the sanctuary of the Lord where he
served and slept. It is a good thing
to lzm;g much sin forgiven, but it is
better " far®to grow up without sin.
Two traits in Samuel's character
stand out in this call; namely, his
cheerful obedience to the Lord’'s call
and his surrendered will. It was no
easy thing to respond cheerfully to
the thrice repeated call. It may have
seemed to him to be unreasonable,
but each time he obeyed in simplicity,
IV. Samuel's First Prophetic Mes
sage (3:11.18).
Up to this time Samuel obeyed the
one who was over him, but the time i
had now come when he must directly
hear and obey the Lord. The first
essage entrusted to him is a most
/ terrible one. To deliver it s a most
trying task. He hesitated to tell it to
Ell, but when pressed by him he man- ;
ifested the true courage which wus
I¥ing back of his fear. It must have
been a bitter sting to Eli to see Sam
uel recognized and himself passed by,
but he was submissive, He knew
that the slight was just; he could not
fall to interpret it thus in view of the
uppearance of the man of God to him
(2:27-36). This fearful visitation up
on Eli's house was due to the sins of
his sons. He was held accountable
for not restraining them. Parental
laxity is most cruel. There is an age
in which children may be restrained,
but when passed over the power to re.
strain goes with it.
V. Samuel Established In the Pro
phetic Ofiece (3:19-21). :
» “And Samuel grew, and the Lord
was with him, and did let none of his
words fall to the ground. And all
Israel, from Dan even to Beersheba
Pmew that Samuel was established to
be a prophet of the Lord.” This is a
verification of the saying “Him that
hionors me I will honor.” Littie did
Hannah realize that the boy who had
been given in answer to her prayer
would one day become the head of the
nation. This new position brought
great danger to the boy, but the God
who raised him up was able to sus
tian him.
Faith and Waiting.
The most difficult business in the
world is waiting, No one can do it
without some kind of faith. It is a
venture of triumphant faith, The great
relievers have been the unwearied
waiters; faith meant to them, not con
troversial opinlon, but sustaining
power.—Dr. Harry Emerson Fosdick,

Lif/e‘ or rather life in a continually
expanding form, is after all a busi
ness, and they who are the most in
earnest get from it the most and lin
turn give the most back to the world

i so, it is a sugges
tion worth noting. This mixture may
take place after the fruits are cooked,
but of course the results will be bat
ter if both are cooked together when
fresh. Use one part of the berries to
two parts of rhubarb. The rhubarb is
not at all noticeable, as the flavor of
the other fruit is so much higher.
Save all juices from canned fruit,
if but a tablespoonful in the jar;
mixed with two or three of some oth
er flavor, one will have enough to
flavor a pudding sauce, lemonade or
baked apples.
Put the last few spoonfuls of horse
radish left in the glass into the pickle

Sprinkle dried bread crumbs over
string beans caoked for the table, then
add paprika and celery salt for sea

When half an onion has been*used,
turn the cut side down on a small
plate, and it will keep fresh for days.
A bunch of parsley, if washed .and
put into a mason jar, sealed air-tight,
will keep fresh and crisp for two
weeks. Leave enough water clinging
to the leaves to keep them moist.
Apple juice and pulp combines well
with many fruits and berries, extend
ing the delicate flavor of choice fruit
and reducing the cost which might oth
erwise be prohibitive,
A slice of pineapple will flavor a
large dish of milder fruit; so will
quinces and oranges combine with ap
ples for marmalade.
Apple juice with peach or cherry,
strawberry or other fruits which are
hard to thieken, makes very good jelly
which would otherwise be sirupy.
Cranberry juice is another good fruit
extender; added to fresh strawberries
it makes a beautiful and tasty pre
serve. Strawberries, when canned,
often lose their color, but with ‘cran
berries this is overcome.
