Title: The Word Came to Me
Topic: Word
Summary: The Bible is a large block of text that hasn't changed for a couple of thousand years; yet it describes "the word of the Lord" as a living force that speaks directly to people about what is going on in their lives and surroundings. How can we reconcile these two views?

1 Samuel 3:4-10
4
that Yahweh called Samuel; and he said, "Here I am."
5
He ran to Eli, and said, "Here I am; for you called me." He said, "I didn't call; lie down again." He went and lay down.
6
Yahweh called yet again, "Samuel!" Samuel arose and went to Eli, and said, "Here I am; for you called me." He answered, "I didn't call, my son; lie down again."
7
Now Samuel didn't yet know Yahweh, neither was the word of Yahweh yet revealed to him.
8
Yahweh called Samuel again the third time. He arose and went to Eli, and said, "Here I am; for you called me." Eli perceived that Yahweh had called the child.
9
Therefore Eli said to Samuel, "Go, lie down: and it shall be, if he calls you, that you shall say, 'Speak, Yahweh; for your servant hears.'" So Samuel went and lay down in his place.
10
Yahweh came, and stood, and called as at other times, "Samuel! Samuel!" Then Samuel said, "Speak; for your servant hears."
