‏ 1 Samuel 2:26

Samuel Grows in Stature

If the spiritual darkness increases, the light of God shines the clearer. Samuel grows against the oppression. The LORD and men rejoice more and more the more they see of Samuel’s fear of God (cf. Lk 2:52). His life is a blessing for all who encounter him. It is striking how much he is different from Eli’s wicked sons.
