Extraordinary Gratitude
Extraordinary Gratitude Read 1 Samuel 1:1 through 3:21 Nancy attempted to read her toddler’s favorite bedtime story while Davy snuggled close, but her tears kept blurring the pages as she read about the childhood of Samuel the prophet. She couldn’t imagine doing what Samuel’s mother, Hannah, had done—leaving her young son at the temple to serve God. What extraordinary gratitude for the gift of a child. “I prayed for this child, and the Lord has granted me what I asked of him. So now I give him to the Lord” (1 Samuel 1:27–28). Nancy and her husband couldn’t imagine ever letting go of their only child. So it came as a shock when Davy began sensing a call from God to become an Air Force pilot. A military career was the last thing his parents would have chosen. Yet, when they sought the Lord’s guidance, He confirmed the call. By faith, they released Davy to God’s will out of gratitude for His gift of a child. Davy went on to become an honored officer whose glowing faith is winning souls to Christ. Thought for Today: By releasing our children to Jesus’ care, we free them to shine for Him. Quicklook: 1 Samuel 1:17–28
