The LORD Remembers

1 Samuel 1:19 Then they rose early in the morning and worshiped before the Lord, and returned and came to their house at Ramah. And Elkanah knew Hannah his wife, and the Lord remembered her. 20 So it came to pass in the process of time that Hannah conceived and bore a son, and called his name Samuel, saying, “Because I have asked for him from the Lord.”

They rose up early in the morning to worship the LORD. Then they left all their concerns with the LORD and went home. The LORD remembered Hannahs request and Elkanahs love for his wife. She conceived and bore Samuel, that great prophet.
Everything good comes from giving the LORD your first fruits of worship early and often. This is an act of faith. The faithless will not worship God early or late. They must first see God work before they give His just due. The things I trust in the LORD for is as good as done, in Gods will & timing. Thus, I love to worship Him early & often. We are to come to Him in faith. Those who doubt will never see. Those who believe without seeing will see. The Samuels of our lives are such a refreshing blessing and boost of joy in our lives. All the areas I put my trust in the LORD have been my greatest delights. There is no doubt its the LORD who remembers me!
