The boy Samuel was called at least 6 times in this reading, 5 by Jehovah (verses 4,6,7, and twice in verse 10) and once by Eli (verse 15). Samuel was listening every time, even when he did not know who was calling. That is a good way to find out who is calling—be a good listener! He responded well to God and to Eli—all young boys and girls should be taught to be good listeners.
